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



SELECT NAMED DUTCH HYACINTHS 



N. S. Our selected Teamed Hyacinths are the cream of the Holland Nurseries under their original 

 name. Tor forcing in pots or for outdoor beds they far surpass the class of Sulbs usually sold. 



The single-flowered varieties are generally more effective and better for forcing 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 for forcing in water by two asterisks (**). 



Three of a kind sold at the dozen rate
