HENDERSON'S SPECIAL HYACINTHS ^S G R £ 



To Color Without Names - - Cheaper Than Named Varieties - - Far Better Than Mixed 



Henderson's Special Hyacinths (equally useful for gardens, bedding and 

 borders, or forc<-d for winter flowering in pots or pans) are larger sized bulbs 

 than those put in ordinary mixtures. They are the same age as the first size 

 Named Hyacinth offered by us on pages 4 and 5, 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 

 i n 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, and on account of their low price are also extensively forced for winter- 

 blooming and cutting. 



Plant or pot hyacinth bulbs between September and the last of November — 

 the earlier the better — as it gives them a longer period to make roots before 

 winter sets in and the flowers in consequence will be better developed. 



In beds, borders, etc., set the bulbs 5 to 6 inches apart and 4 inches deep 

 measuring from the top of the bulb. 



For winter flcwering in the house Hyacinths may be grown in pots or pans of 

 soil — 1 bulb to a 5-in. pot, 3 bulbs in a 6 or 7-in. pot, 6 or 7 bulbs in an 8-in. pot 

 or pan. The nicest and most successful way however is to grow the bulbs in 

 bowls of " Henderson's Prepared Fibre " — See page 50.
