Hyacinth Multifla 
These bulbs have undergone a special cultural treatment 
which causes them to produce, instead of the ordinary single 
spike of flowers, from 8 to 12 loosely arranged, graceful flower- 
spikes from each bulb. The rich fragrance of ordinary Hya¬ 
cinths is not lost in the process. They are unexcelled for grow¬ 
ing in the home, either in peat moss, bulb fiber, or in ordinary 
garden soil and are hardy, and perfectly suited for garden 
planting as well. The informal dainty gracefulness of the plant 
in bloom appeals to everyone and is especially attractive to 
those who have considered the ordinary Hyacinth rather stiff 
and formal. The treated bulbs have many offshoots, and for 
that reason each bulb is packed in an individual box with the 
utmost of care. They can be supplied in Pink, White, and 
Blue. 35 cts. each; $1 for 3; $3.50 per doz.
