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 
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, 
fustic baskets and vases, etc., and for making into hanging baskets (irr pn,e;e 37).
