Drbmr's Rmliable Bulbs 



On the following pages we give a list of the leading bulbs used by florists for forcing ; a complete list of all bulbs which we 

 handle will be given in our Wholesale Price List issued September ist. Many varieties of bulbs are reported scarce this season, 

 including Dutch and French Hyacinths, Scarlet Tulips, Double Daffodils, etc., and much inferior stock is likely to find its way to 

 this country. Beware of low priced stock this year, it is likely to be low grade as well. Our stocks are coming from the 

 most reliable growers, and under favorable conditions should give satisfactory results. All prices include cost of bulbs, duty, 

 packing and delivery to any freight or express line in Philadelphia.

Selected First Size 



Named Hyacinths 



The superiority of Named Hyacinths for forcing and bedding 

 is attested by the increasing sales every year. They can always 

 be depended upon to produce large, full spikes, which command 

 a much higher price and readier sale than the inferior blooms 

 produced by the mixed .sorts. We handle only the very finest kinds in both single 

 and double flowering, full descriptive list will be given in our next catalogue. We 

 will furni.sh assorted varieties at ^6.00 per 100 ; $58.00 per 1000. 



Mixed Dutch Hyacinths 



{In Separate Colors) 



The following are selected unnamed sorts, and are used largely for forcing 

 and bedding. They are made up of bulbs measuring 15 centimeters and over in 

 circumference — better in every way than the usual run of Hyacinths sold in 

 mixture, which rarely run over 12 centimeters in circumference.

II 



Dtttcli Roman Hyacinths 



Excellent for growing in pots, pans, or boxes ; flowering later 

 than tlie French Romans. We offer a selection of the 12 best- 

 named varieties for forcing, including Gertrude, Gigantea, La 

 Grandesse, Czar Peter, etc. The bulbs measure 12 centimeters 

 and over in circumference, and must not be confounded with 

 smaller unnamed miniatures. $2.25 per 100 ; $20.00 per 1000. 



Second Size 



Named Hyacinths 



These are smaller than our selected first size bulbs, but are 

 fine flowering stock, and largely used for forcing in pots, ete., 

 also for bedding ; better in every way than mixtures. We carry 

 20 of the very finest varieties in stock, such as Chas. Dickens, 

 Gertrude and Roi des Beiges in reds and pinks ; La Grandesse, 

 L' Innocence and Mme. van der Hoop in whites ; Grand Maitre, 

 King of the Blues and Czar Peter in blues, etc. A full list of 

 the varieties will be given in our September Wholesale Price 

 List, in the meantime we will be pleased to accept orders in 

 assorted colors at the all round price of $4.75 per 100 ; $45.00 

 per 1000.
