J. M. THORBURN & CO.— CATALOGUE OF BULBS 3 



SELECT NAMED HYACINTHS 



N. B. Our selected named Hyacinths are the cream of the Holland Nurseries undei* their orig- 

 inal names. For forcing in pots or for outdoor beds they far surpass the class of bulbs usually sold. 



The single-flowered varieties are generally more effective than the Double ones. They also, as a rule, 

 succeed better in glasses. The Double varieties are distinguished by an asterisk {*) and those of them that 

 do well in water by two asterisks (**). 



// ordered by mail, please add 15 cts. per dozen for postage. Three of a kind sold at the dozen rate.
