Selected Bedding Hyacinths 



This grade is especially selected for extensive outdoor planting. Flower spikes are not so 

 long and heavy as those produced by the exhibition grade, but short and more compact and for 

 this reason not so liable to be broken down by the heavy Spring rains. All bulbs are strictly 

 flowering age and can be depended upon to bloom satisfactorily. Plant 4 to 5 inches deep and 

 6 to 10 inches apart.

Dutch Miniature Hyacinths for Forcing 



This superb form of Hyacinth has been neglected for a long time, because their beauty and 

 ease of culture as pot plants is not generally known. They are, as the name implies, minia- 

 tures of the large exhibition sorts with spikes 3 to 5 inches long and nicely formed, A 7- or 8- 

 inch pot with 9 or 10 of these bulbs in full bloom is indeed a thing of beauty. Plant same 

 as the exhibition sorts, set away in a cool dark place for about 14 weeks and bring into bloom 

 in a cool room. The following sorts have proven best in our trials.

French White Roman Hyacinths 



These charming Winter flowering bulbs are only surpassed in ease of culture by the Paper- 

 white Narcissus and their graceful spikes of loosely arranged bells together with their spicy 

 fragrance help to make a pleasing variety in your Winter garden. 



White Roman Hyacinths are one of the first bulbs to arrive in the Fall (generally in late 

 August) and if potted at once may be had in bloom for Thanksgiving. They may be grown in 

 pebbles or bulb fibre in bowls like the Paper-white Narcissus or in pots in soil, the same as 

 other Hyacinths. They require quite a lot of moisture and need only be kept in the dark 7 or 

 8 weeks. For succession make plantings every two weeks.
