HYACINTH 
For fall planting. Recommened for both house cul¬ 
ture and out of door bedding. A circular or star shaped 
bed with various colors alternated produces a beautiful 
effect. Is much used for forcing in the house, and when 
so used blooms freely during the winter. 
The plants have stiff, upright green leaves growing up 
from the bulb. The bell shaped flowers are in large thick 
clusters from eight to twelve inches long. Colors are white, 
pink, red, yellow, lilac and purple. When planted out of 
doors blooms in April and May according to locality. 
May be set in clumps in the shrubbery or perennial 
border. When set among lilies, produces bloom before the 
lilies reach the blooming stage.
