The- Best- Hyacinths 



§^_.. 



It is not often that 

 one family of flowers 

 are invested with so 

 many charming 

 qualities as are Hy- 

 acinths. Nature 

 must have conceived 

 these lovely flowers 

 in one of her most 

 gracious moods. It 

 may be truthfully 

 said of them that for 

 massive, yet graceful 

 beauty, superb finish 

 of flower and inde- 

 scribable fragrance 

 they are unequaled 

 by any flower. Those 

 who have grown 

 them know that this 

 strong endorsement 

 is merited in every 

 particular. 



They are easily 

 grown, and with the 

 lendid bulbs we 

 offer for the season 

 of '95 no one need 

 fear disappointing 

 results, whether 

 grown indoors or 

 planted in open 

 ground. Everyone 

 should include a few 

 Hyacinths with their 

 order. Nothing we offer will give more gen- 

 uine satisfaction. Our assortment is not 

 large, but it contains the best varieties of 

 distinct colors, and at the same time those 

 that are highly recommended by our Holland 

 bulb grower, especially for home planting. 



.Our customers will find that 

 our prices are extremely 

 low, the character of the stock offered considered. They are based on first- 

 class, well-ripened bulbs of the first or largest size. This is the only size we 

 offer, and the only kind we recommend to give unqualified satisfaction. 

 Second size bulbs of weak vitality can be purchased much cheaper, but it is 

 well to remember that economy in prices means economy in quality and 

 results, with a decided uncertainty of the latter not materializing at all. This 

 important fact borne in mind, and also that no extra price per bulb is 

 charged for postage — at prices named goods being sent postpaid — we feel at 

 liberty to appeal with entire confidence to all our friends for their orders, on 



the ground that no superior advantages as regards prices and quality of stock can be obtained 



elsewhere.
