Hyacinths 
Our Hyacinths are carefully grown and selected bulbs that under proper con¬ 
ditions will give splendid spikes of bloom. We had many compliments on the quality 
of the Hyacinth bulbs last year and are importing the same high grade this season. 
The size of the bulb is important but at the same time we find that even our medium 
and small 1 sizes give better blooms than many “extra large” bulbs that were not 
propagated accordirig to the best methods. There is a difference, regardless of size. 
Pink and Red Shades 
Gertrude. Deep rose pink compact flower, 
excellent for early forcing or bedding. 
La Victoire. Bright carmine red, good for 
bedding and fair for midseason forcing. 
Marconi. Deep rose pink. Very good. About 
same shade as Gertrude forcing a trifle 
later. 
Queen of the Pinks. Very fine bright but 
deep rose pink and the best for late 
forcing. Excellent bedder also. 
Yellow Varieties 
City of Haarlem. Fine large bright golden 
yellow spikes. For midseason or late 
forcing or bedding. 
Prince Henry. The best yellow hyacinth 
for early forcing. 
White Varieties 
LTnnoccnce. Most popular of all white 
hyacinths with both florists and private 
gardens. Large well formed but loose 
spike. For early or midseason forcing 
and bedding. 
Blue Shades 
Bismarck. Light sky blue, large and un¬ 
excelled for early forcing. 
Grand Maitre. Perhaps the most popular 
of all blue hyacinths. Very fine deep 
porcelain blue producing most attrac¬ 
tive spikes. For forcing best suited to 
medium early and midseason use. 
King of the Blues. Very dark glossy blue 
with well formed spike and fairly short 
stems. Unexcelled as dark shade for 
late forcing.
