BEDDING 



The stiff, waxy flower clusters of Hyacinths, available in an exciting color range, 

 are most effectively used in a formal rather than a naturalistic setting. For geo- 

 metric beds, along a masonry walk or planted in large groups between masses of 

 narcissus in a wide border, Hyacinths are ideal. Bulbs should be in before Novem- 

 ber 1, and earlier planting is recommended.
