DR. LIEBER. 2. Pale lavender-blue, with faint tinge of dark 
violet; large spike, well filled out. A handsome variety for bed¬ 
ding, and a very early forcer. 
DUKE OF WESTMINSTER. 2. Bright, dark blue, a very clear 
tone; full spike with large bells having a white center. A fine new 
variety for combining with the paler blues. 
GARIBALDI. 1. Deep crimson-red, with a splendid, large spike. 
The best red for early forcing. 
GENERAL DE WET. 2. Soft light pink; a fine spike with large 
bells. A pink Grand Maitre, and like this variety giving several 
secondary spikes. Very fine for pots or bedding. 
GRAND MAITRE. 2. Dark lavender-blue; large bells, and very 
long, well-filled truss, on an unusually strong stem. Equally 
good forcer and bedding variety, usually throwing a number of 
secondary spikes. 
HERALD. 1. Very pale rose, shaded deeper on back of bells, large 
spike and an early variety. 10 bulbs, $3.20; 100 bulbs, $30. 
HEIN ROOZEN. 1. Snowy white; splendid big bells, and long, 
loose spike of great elegance. A superb early sort for forcing, 
and the best white for the border.

pact form; a distinct shade and attractive with the yellow kinds. 
LADY DERBY. 1. Clear rose-pink; fine spike with large bells. A 
splendid forcing variety and unexcelled for bedding, because its 
strong stem holds the truss erect to the end. The finest of all 
the rose-pink Hyacinths.

with waxy bells. Splendid for bedding or late forcing.

form, carried on a stout stem. A slightly deeper shade than Lady 
Derby. Splendid for any outdoor purpose.
