MuscarI, GRAPE HYACINTH 
Muscari (Grape Hyacinths) 
One of the prettiest of early spring flower- 
ing bulbs, growing about 6 inches high, and 
throwing up numerous spikes of flowers, 
which resemble a miniature inverted bunch 
of grapes. They are perfectly hardy, and 
for this reason they are largely used for 
naturalizing, especially amongst the grass 
and in woods or other shady places, also in 
the Rock Garden. 
Armeniacum. Effective long stemmed 
Grape Hyacinth of deep cobalt blue, en- 
livened by white lacing at the aperture 
of the bells. Wonderfully fragrant. Very 
large flowers and blooms later than Heav- 
enly Blue. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.50 per 100; 
$30.00 per 1000. 
White Grape Hyacinths (Pearls of 
Spain). Pure white. 80 cts. per doz.; 
$5.50 per 100; $50.00 per 1000. 
Heavenly Blue Grape Hyacinths. A strong growing variety producing 
much larger spikes of flowers than the ordinary Blue Grape Hyacinth. 
Color clear light blue; very showy. 45 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per 100; $25.00 
per 1000.

These beautiful flowering bulbs delight in a cool, moist atmosphere, and will repay 
extra care in cultivation. The curious tooth-like bulb may be kept out of the ground 
without injury for a long time, and if planted in spring in a cool, shady situation will 
generally give satisfactory results. They are also desirable for pot culture and for grow- 
ing in frames in spring. Also suitable for rockeries in a mild climate. 
Double French Hybrids. A splendid mixture containing all the brilliant colors 
for which this strain is famous. 60 cts. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000. 
Florentine. Very similar to the French mixed in colors, but more desirable because 
of its very large flowers. 75 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100; $40.00 per 1000. 
Scillas (Sauills) 
(Excellent for Rock Gardens) 
Sibirica. One of the prettiest of early spring-blooming bulbs, of dwarf habit, with 
sprays of exquisite rich blue flowers. Grown in masses, in conjunction with Crocus, 
particularly the yellow variety, Chionodoxas and Snowdrops, the effect is charming. 
Mammoth bulbs, 70 cts. per doz.; $4.50 per 100; $35.00 per 1000. 
Campanulata (Spanish Blue-bell, or Wood 
Hyacinth). A beautiful spring-flowering 
bulb; spikes of bell-shaped flowers, fine for 
naturalizing in the woods, etc.; perfectly 
hardy and requires no further care when 
once planted. This is one of the few 
things that will thrive under pine trees. 
We offer them in separate colors and in 
mixture as under.
