EARLY ROMAN HYACINTHS 
Roman Hyacinths are extensively used for ‘‘forcing’’ for cut flowers. 
The white Roman Hyacinth is the earliest, best and most floriferous 
variety, though the pink and light blue are very beautiful and supply a 
variation of color. For Culture, etc., see our pamphlet. Sent free if 
asked for. 
Roman Hyacinths are not hardy enough for open ground planting 
north of Washington, but where the winters are mild, especially if 
lightly protected with mulch, they thrive excellently in the garden.

BUTCH ROMAN HYACINTHS 
The smaller or three-year-old bulbs of some varieties of Dutch Hya- 
cinths produce beautiful spikes of bloom, not as large nor furnished with 
as many bells as older-full-sized bulbs but still so satisfactory for their 
low price that they are extensively grown for winter flowers, forced 
either in ‘‘flats’’, pans or pots. They may be had in flower from January 
on—thus succeeding the earlier French Romans. The bulbs may be 
placed very near together—say—an inch apart—requiring 7 or 8 bulbs 
for a 7-inch pan or 5 bulbs for a 5-inch pot or pan.
