BULBS FOR EARLY FORCING. 



Early White Roman Hyacinth 



EARLY ROMAN HYACINTHS. 



These beautiful Hyacinths are indispensable to the florist 

 in his autumn and winter cut-flower work; while to the ama- 

 teur they are among the most easily cultivated and most satis- 

 factory 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. 



When grown in pots or pans they are most effective planted 

 in groups of six or more bulbs in each.

POLYANTHUS NARCISSL 



A very decorative class of bulbous plants for green- 

 house and window cultivation, but not hardy out of 

 doors in our climate. They produce enormous trusses 

 of delicately fragrant flowers, varying in color from snowy 

 white to deep yellow. Treat the bulbs in the same manner 

 as noted for Hyacinths, except that the bulbs should be 

 set half an inch deeper in the soil. They may be easily 

 and quickly forced; our florists frequently have them in 

 bloom by Thanksgiving.
