Bulbs and Plants for Early Forcing. 
The following are specially recommended to the notice of those desiring a supply 
of flowers at Christmas and early in the New Year. 
Early White Roman Hyacinths. 
Deliciously fragrant aud very early flowering variety. By planting early in September and gently 
forcing, the Early White Roman may be had in bloom in November, aud a few successive plantings at 
intervals of about a fortnight will ensure a continuance of bloom till after Christmas. Both in bulb and 
flower they are smaller than the ordinary Hyacinth, and should consequently be planted five or six 
in a pot. The delicately scented flowers, which are produced in great profusion, are exceedingly valuable 
to cut for bouquets, &o.

Lily of the Valley. 
For early forcing single crowns of these should be planted 
about twelve in a five-inch pot, with the buds well above the 
surface. Cover the crowns with a little moss or an inverted flower 
pot and place them in a good heat of say 85 or 90 degrees; 
water frequently with tepid water, and if judiciously looked 
after they will bloom in four or five weeks from time of potting. 
Good single crowns are much the best for this purpose.

Spiraea Japonica. 
Perhaps the most elegant and useful of all plants for early 
forcing. Lovely and chaste spikes of elegant white inflores- 
cence, and is singularly adapted for pot display, table or hand 
bouquets, &c., and by judicious forcing may be had in 
abundance at Easter. It will last well in almost any situation 
when in bloom. It is besides perfectly hardy, and as such 
can be grown on the open border.
