HYACINTHS 



For Beds 



This Bed is 6 feet across, contains 108 Hyacinths in 5 colors, all for $5.00, postp'd. 



(See other prices below) 



HYACINTHS must be planted in the Fall, and are esteemed among the most beautiful of all 

 Spring flowering bulbs. The flower spikes are so regular in form, and the colors so bright and 

 distinct, that it is easy to make any design you wish flash forth in glowing colors at the advent of 

 Spring. Our Selected Hyacinths in separate colors are largely used for this purpose, as they are sure 

 to bloom satisfactorily, and the price is as low as can possibiy be afforded. 



Hyacinths should be planted 6 inches apart each way and 

 3 to 4 inches deep, and lor circular beds should be arranged 

 as follows : 



In the center, plant 3 Hyacinths (color, purple) 

 For 1st circle, 18 inches in diam., 9 " ( " " ) 



'« 2d " 30 " " 15 " ( " blush) 

 " 3d 44 42 44 " 21 " ( " blue) 

 44 4th " 51 " 44 27 44 ( " white) 

 " 5th 44 66 41 44 33 ( "deep red) 



Thus a bed, 6 feet in diameter, requires IDS Hyacinths. You 

 may choose any colors you wish. 



Full cultural directions will be sent with each order. 



The foregoing schedule may be used for planting Hyacinths 

 in circular beds of any size and colors. Please order as fol- 

 lows ; we deliver free at these prices :
