Among the many flowers that can be grown from fall-planted bulbs 
the Hyacinth stands at the top of the list. It is probably the easiest 
flower to grow in pots or bowls, and what could be more decorative 
or attractive than a display of Hyacinths in the house 
during the winter or early spring! Equally effective and 
beautiful are beds, borders or groups of Hyacinths here 
and there among perennials or in front of shrubbery. 
The Hyacinth might be grown for its fragrance alone, 
but with its stately growth, showy flower-spikes and 
wide color range, it is a flower that is certainly every¬ 
body’s favorite. 
From a long list of named Hyacinths we have selected 
those offered on account of their free flowering qualities 
and distinct colors. 
Enchantress —a typical spike of Burpee’s 
Giant Flowered Hyacinths 
Mammoth Sized Bulbs 
The spikes produced from Burpee’s Mammoth Sized 
Bulbs will be truly Giant and well filled with large, 
showy florets. Our Mammoth bulbs are carefully 
selected, of the highest quality and particularly 
desirable for beds, borders, pots or glasses, where 
the largest flower-spikes are wanted.

plish blue; a glorious shade, always admired. Large, 
broad trusses; erect and stately. 
9004 Encbantress Beautiful light delft-blue 
shaded with somewhat deeper blue; large florets closely 
set on tall spikes. 
9006 Gertrude Large, compact trusses of rich 
carmine-rose. Considered the best rose-colored Hya¬ 
cinth for all purposes.

erect habit.

very strong-stemmed trusses of bright rose-pink. 
9029 Royal Scarlet (Tubergen’s Scarlet) Bulbs 
and flower-spikes smaller than other varieties, but what

fiery scarlet color of the erect, stocky trusses.

of deep creamy yellow. Bulbs and flower-spikes some¬ 
what smaller than others.
