CURRIE BROS. CO., AUTUMN CATALOGUE, 1914 



Currie's Selected Early 



French Roman 



Hyacinths 



These are especially valuable for forcing and pot culture in the 

 house, each bulb producing from two to six spikes of dainty, very 

 fragrant flowers. 



If planted early in September they can be brought into flower 

 in November, and by keeping them under cover and bringing into the 

 light when wanted, a succession of bloom may be kept up until May. 

 They are not considered hardy as far north as this, but by protecting 

 well from severe frosts we have had very pretty beds of them early in 

 spring 



Early White — One of the most popular bulbous flowering plants, 

 used by florists in very large numbers for cut flowers. The bulbs 

 planted at intervals from September to December will bloom from 

 November to May. The flowers are dtliciously fragrant.

Miniature or Dutch Roman 

 Hyacinths 



Miniature Single Dutch Hyacinths, suitable for early forcing, 

 each bulb giving one or more neat little spikes of bloom. Very pretty 

 in cut flower work and highly ornamental for winter blooming in the 

 house, the most satisfactory results being obtained by planting about 

 a dozen bulbs in a shallow pan 9 inches in diameter.
