J. M. THORBTJRN Sc CO.'S CATALOGUE OF BULBS 



MIXED HYACINTHS IN SEPARATE COLORS 



The very largest size. Suitable either for forcing or bedding 



Our Mixed Hyacinths should not be confounded with the small-sized, low-priced mixtures often sold. Our 



bulbs are all of the largest size. Being furnished in so man}' separate colors, splendid bedding effects may be 

 produced with them. They are also admirably adapted for forcing in the greenhouse for winter cut-flowers.

MINIATURE HYACINTHS 



FRENCH ROMAN HYACINTHS 



Extensively used by florists for forcing for cut-tlowers. For this purpose they are the best and most popu- 

 lar of bulbs. The flowers are pure white, delightfully fragrant, and each bulb will throw up from three to four 



spikes. For forcing, three or four bulbs are gener- 

 ally planted in a suitable pot, in good soil (as rec- 

 ommended for other varieties). The pots must be 

 kept in a cool and dark place until they fill with 

 roots, when the flower-spikes can be rapidly de- 

 veloped by exposure to light and moderate heat. 

 They are very easily grown and extremely early, 

 and by making successive plantings they may be 

 had in flower all through the winter. The blue and 

 rose Roman Hyacinths flower from one to two 

 weeks later than the white variety.

ITALIAN HYACINTHS 



These are grown largely by florists for cutting. 

 The flowers are single, very graceful and fragrant, 

 and produced abundantly. They are hardier than 

 the Romans, and may also be planted outside in 

 the fall for flowers for early spring cutting.
