CAREFULLY CHOSEN NAMED VARIETIES IN DISTINCT COLORS ALL FLOWERING AT ONE TIME 
The most satisfactory Hyacinth flowers for the garden are produced 
from the bulbs about 15 to 17 centimeters in circumference. These sizes 
are the most suitable for outdoor planting in formal beds or in drifts in the 
border. The larger, say 17 to 18 centimeters are ideal for bowls with fiber, 
or clay pots and pans with soil. They are economical grades, selling at 
30 to 40 per cent less than the "top sizes". Top sizes should be used for 
water glasses and for contests at shows or by those who desire the finest 
and largest bloom. They are offered on the opposite page. 
The Hyacinth chosen to represent each of the following shades 
of color is a variety which we have found from trials will be best 
in the three essential requirements: best in its color; stoutest stem; 
largest truss of bells. We desire you to know that we have avoided 
using varieties that are of weak stem, and that do not support the 
blooms under normal garden conditions.

Hyacinths in the Garden—Sweetly Fragrant and Colorful 
>~Atuftiflora cint/is 
By a special cultural treatment in Holland, Hyacinth bulbs can 
be grown which will produce from 6 to 1 0 excellent flowers on one 
bulb. We have secured about 7000 bulbs of these Hyacinths. A 
thousand more or less of each color. If you would like to grow 
bulbs in the house, here is an opportunity you must not overlook. 
They are easily grown in Wayside Gardens Bulb Fiber or earth. 
Each bulb will come carefully packed in a small box. Cultural in¬ 
structions will go with each order. Don't pass up the opportunity 
of having several clusters of fragrant, colorful flowers this winter. 
They may, of course, also be grown in the garden.

The early Roman Hyacinth, with its graceful spike of fragrant 
bells, is one of the earliest of all winter-flowering bulbs. 
They may be placed in the more artistic ornamental bowls, using 
our prepared Bulb Fiber as a filler, which only needs to be kept 
continually moist, requires no additional fertilizer, and in which 
the bulbs thrive and bloom luxuriantly. Bulbs planted in September 
bloom in December.
