Supreme S^ucicint/i, 
for Sz/iibition 
No one would have expected that our old Mother Earth 
contained such entrancing fragrance had not Hyacinths, 
by some miracle of alchemy, revealed it to us. 
Here, too, we have it combined with the widest possible 
range of color, and even with flowers of the truest blue— 
in every shade-—the very rarest combination. 
They open to greet us before the new spring dawns, if 
we but give them a share of our garden, and pour out 
their incense as if in token of their gratitude and thanks 
for their deliverance from a long imprisonment. 
Of importance to us all is the greatly reduced price of 
Hyacinths. We hope you will take advantage of the oppor- 
tunity by planting them freely.

For places where a mass of color is required and it is 
not necessary that a particular variety be used, we recom¬ 
mend the medium sized Hyacinth bulbs often called Bed¬ 
ding Hyacinths. They are splendid bulbs that will bloom 
magnificently. 
These Hyacinths should be planted from 6 to 8 inches 
apart. Where the beds are planted to be viewed from a 
distance, they may be planted 10 inches apart. 
♦Light Blue Bedding Hyacinths. 16 to 17 centimeters. 
♦Dark Blue Bedding Hyacinths. 16 to 17 centimeters. 
♦Pink Bedding Hyacinths. 16 to 17 centimeters. 
♦Red Bedding Hyacinths. 16 to 17 centimeters. 
♦White Bedding Hyacinths. 16 to 17 centimeters. 
♦Mixed All Colors and Shades. 16 to 17 centimeters.

The flowers are delightfully fragrant and each bulb will 
throw up from 3 to 5 spikes. For forcing, 4 bulbs are 
generally planted in a 5-inch pan. Because of their early 
flowering and ease of growth, they are successfully grown 
in bowls with pebbles in the same manner as Paper-White 
Narcissi. Flowers may be had from December until March 
if plantings are made in succession. 
♦White. $1.20 per 12; $9.00 per 100. 
Until this year the price of the White French Roman 
Hyacinth has been quite high. We are glad to be able 
to offer this attractive early, indoor-flowering Hyacinth 
again at a very moderate price. Mammoth bulbs. 
Prices, All the Above: 
#1.20 per 12. #9.00 per 100. #85.00 per 1000.
