EARLY ROMAN HYACINTHS. 
This beautiful and very valuable variety of Hyacinth is 
more and more used every year for forcing and house cul- 
ture. If planted in September and gently forced they will - 
bloom in November, or their flowering may be retarded by SS 
keeping in a cool place. The flowers, which are smaller than 
the ordinary Hyacinth, are produced very freely, each bulb 
throwing up several spikes of delicately scented blossoms. 
In pots or pans they show to best advantage when five 
or more bulbs are planted in each.
