BARR’S SELECTED BEDDING HYACINTHS. 
For Bedding, Boxes, Bowls, or Pot-Culture. 
The following Hyacinths we have specially selected after many careful trials at our Surbiton Nurseries 
as being the very best for bedding together or alone. They all have good-sized, well-formed spikes 
of distinct pure colours. We also recommend them for filling flower boxes, rustic baskets and vases, etc , 
and for making into hanging baskets (seepage 38). .. Ex , ra SeIec(ed 0rdinary ’
