ROMAN HYACINTHS. 



These are specially 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 had in 

 flower in November, and by keeping them under cov- 

 er and bringing into the light when wanted, a suc- 

 cession of bloom may be had until May. They are 

 not considered hardy as far north as this, but by pro- 

 tecting well from severe frosts we have had very 

 pretty beds of them early in spring.
