PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— SUPERIOR BULBS.— WHOLESALE. 1 



HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR EARLY 



-ROMAN" HYACINTHS . 



T"HE flowers, while smaller than those of Dutch Hyacinths, yet are 

 produced in much greater abundance — each bulb bearing several 

 very graceful flower spikes. The delicious perfume, earliness and 

 profusion of bloom have made Roman Hyacinths exceedingly popular; 

 they are so easily grown and so early that if potted in August and 

 September they can be brought into flower in November and December, 

 and a succession can be had in bloom throughout the winter. Roman 

 Hyacinths are not considered hardy enough for open-ground culture 

 north of Washington, though in our grounds near New York they have 

 proven perfectly hardy, slightly protected. For cutting purposes the 

 Roman Hyacinth is one of the finest bulbs grown. (See cut.) 



The 1913 Crop of Roman Hyacinths is very short, particularly in the 

 larger size!: which accounts for the higher prices. 



For Free Delivery add 8c. per doz., or 65c. per 100 

 to price.

Henderson s SPECIAL HYACINTHS. 



For Bedding and Forcing. To Color Without Names. 



Henderson's Special Hyacinths (equally useful for bedding or forcing) are 

 larger sized bulbs than those put in ordinary mixtures. They are the same age 

 as the first size Named Hyacinths offered by us on pages 2 and 3, from which 

 these are the second selection. They will produce fine spikes of bloom, and the 

 different sorts as offered, being of one shade of color, render them of value for 

 bedding in designs, enabling one to obtain the exact color effect desired, which is a 

 great advantage over mixed reds, mixed blues, etc., at but a slight advance in price.

 fine spikes of bloom and are well adapted for open-ground planting in mixed borders
