S^yacin 
Truly a precious source of scent and color, at a time when other 
flowers are still too shy or fearful to venture forth. No other plant 
in early spring displays such an abundance of jubilant tones of red, 
rose, lavender, purple, blue, yellow and orange. No other spring 
plant enriches our parks and gardens with a heart-lifting fragrance so 
soon after the snow is gone. No other plant requires so little coax¬ 
ing to give its all, either in the garden or in the house. As house 
plants, in bowls with bulb fiber or on glasses filled with pure water, 
or in good old-fashioned clay pots and pans with garden soil, its 
“rising spire,” colorful and fragrant, effects a rare and perfect quality 
of delight. 
The most graceful Hyacinth plant is produced from bulbs about 
16 to 18 centimeters in circumference. These sizes are the most 
suitable for outdoor planting in formal parks or in drifts. The larger, 
say 17 to 18 centimeters, are ideal for bowls with fiber, or clay pots 
and pans with soil. It is an economical grade, selling at 30 to 40 
per cent less than the “top sizes.” Top sizes should be used for water 
glasses, and for contests at shows or by those who desire the finest 
and largest blooms. 
The New Multiflora or many-flowered Hyacinths are a new de¬ 
velopment and not generally known. These bulbs have been sub¬ 
jected to a special cultural treatment which prompts them to pro¬ 
duce from 6 to 8 graceful spikes from one bulb. Delightful to look 
at and easily grown indoors. When buying Hyacinths, remember 
that size does not indicate quality. The larger the bulb the larger the 
bloom. Quality is necessary in all sizes in order to obtain good 
flowers. For 1936 we have reserved for you bulbs of the finest 
stock in Holland. Reports received this spring from customers who 
grew our Hyacinths last year have been most enthusiastic and 
gratifying.

By a special cultural treatment Hyacinth bulbs can be grown 
which will produce from 6 to 10 excellent flowers on one bulb. It is 
rather a difficult thing to do, but when done, something really worth¬ 
while has been accomplished. We have secured about 7000 bulbs of 
these Hyacinths. A thousand more or less of each color. If you 
like to grow bulbs in the house, here is an opportunity you must not 
overlook. They are easily grown in Wayside Gardens Bulb Fiber or 
earth. Each bulb will come carefully packed in a small box. Cultural 
instructions will go with each order. Don’t pass up the opportunity 
of having some big clusters of fragrant, colorful flowers this winter. 
They may, of course, also be grown in the garden.
