BULBOUS FLOWER ROOTS. 
Imported ammally from ilollami. 
The following choice collection of Bulbs has been selected with especial reference to their fine blooming 
habits, brilliant colors, and exquisite fragrance. Their quality cannot be surpassed. They are remarkably 
superior to those refuse roots sent out annually for public sale in our large cities. All who wish to obtain one 
of the best assortments will find it very much to their satisfaction to avail themselves of the opportunity which, 
by importation or culture, we annually offer them. 
These bulbs answer for forcing in the w inter, for the parlor, as well as for planting out in the garden. They 
are always warranted to be sound, and true to name and color, and will be sold as low as they can be obtain- 
ed elsewhere, and much low er than New York prices generally. 
Directions.— T he preferable season for planting out Bulbs is from October until the freezing up of the 
ground. The depth that they should be buried varies with varieties. Hyacinths, Amarillis, large Lilies, 
Crown Imperials, and Nareijsus, four inches ; Tulips, double. Narcissus, and Jonquils, three inches; Crocus, 
Gladiolus, and Snow -drops, tw o inches ; always measuring from the top of the Bulb. Every other year, Hya- 
cinths, Tulips, &c., should be taken up and separated. The time is about one month after the bloom is com- 
pletely gone, when the plants assume a yellowish appearance. Cut off the stem within one inch of the bulb, but 
leave the fibres on, then spread them in an airy room to dry for several weeks; after which they should be 
laid away in dry sand, or w rapped closely in paper, until the planting season returns.
