 They may be easily and quickly forced; our florists frequently 

 have them in bloom by Thanksgiving.

and most vigorous form of the Paper White; the best of all for 



very early forcing, pure white.

1000. 

 Extra Large Bulbs. $0.40 per doz.; $2.50 per 100; $20.00 



per 1000. 

 Early Double Roman. White, with deep yellow cup; large 

 flower trusses; excellent for early forcing. 30c. per doz; $2.00 

 per 100; $16.00 per 1000. 



Polyanthus Narcissus Paper White. 



Early White Roman Hyatiiilh. 



EARLY ROMAN HYACINTHS. 



These beautiful Hyacinths are indispensable to the florist in his 

 autumn and winter cut-flower work, while to the amateur they are 

 among the most easily cultivated and most satisfactory of flowering 

 bulbs. The white variety, if planted early in September and gently 

 forced, will bloom in November; the others require from two to 

 three weeks longer. 



White. Extra Large. 60c. per doz.; $4.50 per 100; $42.00 

 per 1000. 



White. Mammoth. 80c. per doz.; $6.25 per 100; $60.00 per 

 1000. 



Pink. 50c. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000. 



Light Blue. 50c. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000. 



White Italian or Parisian. These are about a fortnight later 

 than the Early White Roman Hyacinths and the blossoms some- 

 what larger. 50c. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; .$35.00 per 1000. 



MINIATURE HYACINTHS. 



These are most fascinating both for forcing in pans and for out- 

 door bedding, and are gaining in favor each year. 



La Grandesse, white. Gertrude, pink. Garibaldi, red. 

 Grand Maitre, light blue. King of the Blues, dark blue. 

 King of the Yellows, golden yellow. Each variety, 50c. per 

 doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000.
