Boddington^s Superlative Named Bedding or Forcing Hyacinths 



SOLD BY SOME SEEDSMEN FOR SECOND SIZE 



These are a superior grade of Bedding or Forcing Hyacinths, being large-sized, named bulbs of 17 centimeters and over. For size of 

 flower and general effect when massed in beds they are unsurpassed. These bulbs are offered to name and color. The same varieties as 

 the first and second sizes offered in this Catalogue. 



Single Hyacinths produce finer spikes, and are altogether more reliable and showy in the open ground than double varieties : hence 

 the following list includes none but singles. For extensive conservatory or greenhouse decoration these H3'acinths will give great satisfac- 

 tion to those who do not wish to incur the expense which is unavoidable for a large selection of named varieties.

Boddington's "'Quality''^ Bedding Hyacinths to Color 



Bedding Hyacinths should be planted about 8 inches apart each way— or, say twenty to the square yard — and 4 or 5 inches deep, 

 reckoning from the top of the bulb. The actual number requisite for a given area, however, must be determined in every instance by the 

 local conditions and the object in view ; a large bed in the distance need not be s& closely planted as a small bed in the immediate fore- 

 ground, and of course a smaller number will be necessary in either case if a groundwork such as Myosotis, Silene or Arabis be provided. 

 Hyacinths planted alternately with Narcissi produce a very striking effect, and for this combination 6 inches from bulb to bulb is a suitable 

 distance. 



The following Hyacinths, although offered at very low prices, have all been imported by us from Holland this year and can be strongly 

 recommended for their high quality. They are specially adapted for groups in borders and shrubberies, where they will give a brilliant 

 display of very handsome flowers ; but for beds, where simultaneous flowering and uniformity of shade are of importance, we recommend 

 the Superlative Hyacinths offered above.
