SINGLE NAMED HYACINTHS. 



Single Hyacinths are, by some, held in less estimation than double ones ; but on a closer 

 acquaintance with their fine qualities, they will be found more deserving of cultivation. 

 They are desirable for their early flowering, especially in pots or glasses ; their colors are 

 more brilliant, and they excel the double in their fine odor and greater profusion of bells.
