HYACINTHS 
The most natural, truly g-i-aceful llyai-inth 
plant is i)i'oduoed from medium or small sized 
l)ulbs. Hyacinths lose si’ace and streng'th when 
they f?ain in size. The “Exhibition” size bulbs 
so commonly offered are not suited for outside 
planting-. They produce large trusses that are 
far too heavy for the stem to hold upright, 
and the first wind or rain lays them flat on 
the ground. This year we are offering only 
one size bulbs, which are ideal for outdoor 
culture hut not recommended for pot culture 
or forcing. These bulbs will produce elegant, 
graceful blooms in the garden and will increase 
in size each year.

of blooming, (1) being the earliest and (4) the

NOVELTY 
DAFFODILS 
Orders for Novelty Daffodils, 
priced at 75c each or more, 
should be in my hands before 
October 1st. When ordering these 
newer Daffodils at a later date, 
it would be well to name a sub¬ 
stitute, in case your order could 
not be filled completely. 
The scale at left shows at a
