MINIATURE HYACINTHS. 
This interesting class of Hyacinths is especially charming; the bulbs are not quite as large as those of the other 
varieties, but the spikes of bloom are large and elegant and of the most beautiful colors and delicious fragrance. 
In pots or beds they can be planted quite near together and the effect is lovely. They bloom freely, and are finely 
adapted for pots, vases, etc., either in separate or mixed colors, or with Van Tholl Tulips, Crocuses, Scillas, etc. 
Colors, Red, White and Blue. 
Each, 4 cents; per dozen, 35 cents; per 100, $2.50. 
BLUE CRAPE HYACINTHS. 
HYACINTHUS BOTKIOIDES. 
A pretty variety with a flower spike about 6 inches long, on which the little pale blue flower bells are so 
Arranged as to somewhat resemble a bunch of grapes. They should be planted in groups, where they will increase 
very rapidly, thus insuring a beautiful bed of bloom each succeeding year, and being perfectly hardy will take care 
of themselves. They are excellent for winter blooming in pots. Plant six 
bulbs in a five inch pot. 3 cents each; 10cents per dozen; 75 cts.per 100. 
FEATHERED HYACINTHS. 
A curious variety with flower spike about a foot in length, which, 
instead of being supplied with gracefully drooping bells, as in all other 
varieties, is a feathery plume. 
Few plants are more strik¬ 
ing in the garden or more 
useful for cutting. Espe¬ 
cially desirable for massing 
in the garden. cents

novelty. This new species is a bulbous plant, and produces a 
flower-stalk three feet in height, terminating in a spike of twenty 
or more large, beautiful, pure-white, bell-shaped flowers, in July 
and August. It is of easiest culture, and if planted about nine 
inches deep it will remain uninjured in the severest winter. Price, 
5c. each; 50c. per dozen. By mail add 2c. each for postage. Hyacinthus Candicans.

These are the earliest of all Tulips, often blooming in the open ground early in April. Being of dwarf habit, 
they are also much esteemed for winter flowers in the house or greenhouse, where their lively colors render them 
very attractive. *
