Hyacinths in Separate Colors 



Our Fine Selected Hyacinths in Separate Colors are good size, well-matured Bulbs, sold at low prices and specially 

 recommended for BEDDING and also for WINTER BLOOMING in the conservatory and window garden, when the 

 higher priced kinds are not desired. They give excellent satisfaction. 



We have given these Hyacinths a thorough trial in our proving beds year after year, and we find by experience 

 that for outside planting the best results are obtained from the single varieties. 



The spikes are always clothed with well-formed florets and are generally larger than the double varieties. 



As many of our customers prefer the double flowers, we offer first-class, well matured bulbs of both kinds.

HOW TO GROW BEAUTIFUL 



In the Open Ground 



They should be planted in the Fall 6 

 inches apart each way and 3to 4 inches 

 deep. Give them slight protection over 

 Winter and they will flash forth in 

 beautiful bright colors early in the 

 Spring and remain in bloom some 

 weeks. Then the Bulbs may be re- 

 moved in time to set your Summer 

 flowering plants. Or in some soils. 

 Bulbs do well a number of years with- 

 out lifting or replanting. In such beds 

 for Summer bloom, sow quick-flower- 

 ing seed of Petunias, Verbenas and 

 Portulacas, etc. 



In Pots or Window Boxes 



Hyacinths potted in September may 

 be brought to bloom by Christmas, 

 and by successive plantings a succes- 

 sion of bloom may be had until Easter. 

 Plant the Bulb in the pot so that its 

 crown just shows, then when finished 

 set away in a cool dark place for 6 

 weeks or 2 months for root growth to 

 develop. After this bring gradually 

 to the light, heat and air, and give 

 plenty of water, ancl you will be well 

 repaid. 



HYACINTHS 



In Glasses 



All Hyacinths succeed well in water. 

 If Hyacinth glasses are not available 

 use pebbles or shells to keep the Bulbs 

 in place and then set the Bulb so that 

 the lower end is almost but not quite 

 in contact with the water. It is not 

 essential to change the water ; a small 

 lump of charcoal in the bottom will 

 serve the same purpose. Put ar^vay in 

 a cool dark place till you see the 

 roots developed, then remove by de- 

 grees to full light and air.
