An ingenious Dutch horticultural scientist has developed a clever new method for 
treating a standard, top size, exhibition Hyacinth bulb, which makes that bulb produce 
6 to 10 flower spikes instead of the usual one. The result is startlingly beautiful and 
wonderfully interesting. One gels a whole bouquet of lovely sweet scented flower.s 
from a single bulb. 
The mechanical process involved is expensive, requires great skill and time and, 
consequently, the supply of treated bulbs is severely limited. We cannot, therefore, 
guarantee to fill late orders. Notwithstanding the scarcity of the treated bulbs and the 
tremendous demand for them, in accordance with our established policy of keeping 
prices low, we have priced them at 35c each. The treated bulbs are extremely easy to 
grow. They are handled exactly as you are accustomed to handling first size named 
Hyacinths and they bloom at the same time. 
Colors: Pink, white, and dark blue; 3 bulbs in 3 separate colors, $1.00. 
Three Bulbs, 1 of each color. Pink, White and Dark Blue, packed in an attractive 
colored carton, $1.25 per carton.
