ROMAN HYACINTHS AND G-RAPB HYACINTHS. 



The Mew Popular 

 Winter Flowers. 



Roman H)icinth5 have de- 

 servedly come to the front as vahi- 

 able flowers for early Winter 

 blooming. The bulbs will grow 

 and bloom as surely and easily as 

 Chinese Sacred Lilies, and like 

 them can be flowered successfully 

 in soil, water or pebbles. By 

 starting the bulbs at intervals a 

 constant succession of flowers can 

 be had. The culture is very simple; when the bulbs are set for flowering they should be placed in a cellar or some similar 

 dry cool place, watered well and not brought out until the roots have made vigorous growth. As will be seen by our illus- 

 tration above, the flowers are lovely and graceful in the extreme. They are exquisitely fragrant and borne in great profusion. 

 We import our bulbs of Roman Hyacinths from the South of France, where the finest bulbs the world produces are ^rown ; 

 we make prices very low, and hope to see some bulbs in every order.

Qhape Hyacimtms. 



An extremely pretty family of flowers, sometimes called

 themselves to the soil and situation as naturally as grass. A 

 few bulbs will rapidly increase and produce each Spring amass 

 of lovely bloom. For Winter blooming tliey give great satis- 

 fiiction ; a few bulbs planted in a 5-inch pot and treated the
