Dreer’s Autumn Catalogue, 1904. 5 
Selected First Size Double Named Hyacinths. 
While Double Hyacinths do not, as a rule, produce as fine spikes as the single sorts—especially when 
grown in water—yet they are exceedingly handsome, and deserve extensive cultivation. The varie- 
ties listed below are those which we have found by actual tests to be the most satisfactory. 
Price: All of the selected first size named Hyacinths (except where noted) at the uniform price 
of 10 cts, each; $1.00 per doz. 
Lf wanted by mail, add 15 cts. per doze for postage. No extra charge for mailing single bulbs,

Early French Roman Hyacinths. 
A charming class of Hyacinths from the south of France 
(quite distinct from the Dutch Hyacinths), producing grace- 
ful, delicately perfumed spikes of flowers. They force readily | 
in the house. Three bulbs can be put in a 4-inch, or’ six 
bulbs in a 6-inch pot, and as each bulb produces several 
spikes it makes a beautiful plant for conservatory or house dec- 
oration, Their treatment is identical with the Dutch Hyacinths 
(see page 8), except that we do not recommend them for out- 
door planting. , 
Early White. Pure white, one of the most valuable plants
