Selected First Size 



Named Hyacinths 



Dutch Roman Hyacinths 



Excellent for growing in pots, pans, or boxes ; flowering later 

 than the French Romans. We offer a selection of the 12 best- 

 named varieties for forcing, including Gertrude, Gigantea, La 

 Grandesse, Czar Peter, etc. The bulbs measure 12 centimeters 

 and over in circumference, and must not be confounded with 

 smaller unnamed miniatures. Our selection of varieties ;j!2. 25 

 per 100; $21.00 per 1000. 



2d Size Named Hyacinths 



These are smaller than our selected first size bulbs, but are 

 fine flowering stock, and largely used for forcing in pots, etc., 

 also for bedding ; better in every way than mixtures. We carry 

 20 of the very finest varieties in stock, such as Chas. Dickens, 

 Gertrude and Roi des Beiges in reds and pinks ; La Grandesse, 

 L' Innocence and Mme. van der Hoop in whites; Grand Maitre, 

 King of the Blues and Czar Peter in blues, etc. A full list of 

 the varieties will be given in our September Wholesale Price 

 List, in the meantime we will be pleased to accept orders in 

 assorted colors. Our selection of varieties ;JS4.oo per 100; 

 538.00 per 1000. 



The superiority of Named Hyacinths for forcing and bedding 

 is attested by the increasing sales every year. They can always 

 be depended upon to produce large, full spikes, which command 

 a much higher price and readier sale than the inferior blooms 

 produced by the mixed sorts. We handle only the very finest 

 kinds in both single and double flowering, full descriptive list will be given in our 

 next catalogue. We will furnish assorted varieties (our selection) at;?6.oo per 

 100 ; ;?s8.oo per 1000. 



Mixed Dutch Hyacinths 



Separate Colors 



The following are selected unnamed sorts, and are used largely for 

 forcing and bedding. They are made up of bulbs measuring 15 centimeters and 

 over in circumference — better in every way than the usual run of Hyacinths sold 

 in mixture, which rarely run over 1 2 centimeters in circumference.
