ELLWANGEK & BAKRY's CATALOGUE OP 



HOLLAND BULBS. 



FOR FALL PLANTING. 



Orders Filled after the 1st of September. 



We beg to say that our stock of Bulbous 

 Flower Roots has been purchased from the 

 most reliable growers, and may be relied 

 upon, both as to quality and correctness. 



Instead of offering a long list of varieties, 

 many of which are of little value, we give a 

 selection of the very best in the various 

 classes. 



The season for filling orders opens about 

 the first of September. Parties ordering 

 early are more likely to get what they want 

 than if they wait until the stock of some 

 articles becomes exhausted. 



Paities unacquainted with the various 

 kinds of bulbs, will do well to leave the 

 selection to us. Such orders will receive 

 our best attention. 



Assortments of Bulbs will be carefully 

 packed and sent by mail free of postage, at 

 the single prices named in this catalogue. 

 When ordered by the dozen and hundred, 

 they will be sent by Express, at the pur- 

 chaser's expense, unless otherioise specially 

 agreed. Other plants in this catalogue, 

 unless so stated, are always sent at purchaser 's 

 expense. 



THE HYACINTH. 



The Hyacinth is one of the finest winter 

 and spring flowering bulbs. It is of very 

 easy culture, and can be grown with equal 

 success in earth, sand, moss or water. Being- 

 adapted to grow in vases, bowls, dishes, shells, 

 wire-work, or anything which will contain a 

 few handfuls of earth or moss, the most or- 

 namental objects for the house can thus be 

 formed. For planting out of doors in beds 

 or borders it is unsurpassed by any plant. 

 Blossoming as it does, at a season when 

 there are few flowers, its beauty and fragrance 

 are doubly appreciated. 



Extract from a letter from one of our patrons 



to ho purchased Ttdips and Hyacinths from 



us, Fall 1893 : 



"I want to thank you for the very fine collection 

 you sent. I think a choicer looking collection of 

 bulbs it would have been hard to find, and this spring 

 they have fulfilled our highest expectations in the 

 richness of their blooms. They have attracted great 

 attention and admiration, and if my friends wish 

 to purchase Tulips or Hyacinths I know where 

 to refer them to." 



SINGLE AND DOUBLE HYACINTHS.
