What some people think of Henderson's 



White Roman Hyacinths. 

 "Fmm oneofyrar selected white Roman Hyacinth 

 bulb* I have twelve good apik s of bloom " 



Mi- SI/SIE WESTBROOK, 

 Much 1, 1899. Newvern, Tenn. 



"I get more spikes of 'firsts' from your strain of 

 White Romans than from any I ever (crew before." 



A. S. WALLACE < Florist), 

 Monteluir, N, J. 



T 



J, In much greater abundance— each bulhpro- 

 ducingseveral very gracefulspikesof bloom; 



their delicious perfume, earllness a nd profusion of 



bloom have made Roman Hyacinths exceedingly 



popular. They are so easily grown and so early 

 ; II potted In August and September they can be brought 

 Bower in November and December, and by a succession 

 lantlngBcan be had in bloom throughout the winter. 



i.in Hyacinths are not considered hardy enough for open ground culturenorth of Wash- 

 >n. though In our grounds near New York they have proved perfectly hardy, slightly 

 ected. For cutting purposes the Eoman Hyacinth is the finest bulb grown. (See cut.)
