Early White Roman Hyacinths. 



Early French Roman Hyacinths 



A charming class of Hyacinths from the south of France (quite distinct from the 

 Dutch Hyacinths), producing graceful, delicately perfumed spikes of flowers. 

 They force readily in the house. Three bulbs can be put in a 4-inch, or six bulbs 

 in a 6-inch pot or pan, and as each bulb produces several spikes it m.nkes a beauti- 

 ful plant for conservatory or house decoration. Their treatment is ideniical with 

 the Dutch Hyacinths (see page 3), except that we do not recommend them for 

 outdoor planting. 



Early White, Pure white, one of the most valuable plants for cut flowers. Mil- 

 lions of these are annually forced in the United Slates. If potted nt intervals
