HYACINTHUS PLUMOSUS (Plumed Hyacinth) 
T do not find these bulbs listed in many catalogues, but I have a supply now 
that will enable me to offer them to you at a reduced price. Here are three 
attractive wavs to use them: 
1. Plant them in small pots, one bulb to a jmt. Plunge into a cold frame or 
outside soil (mulching same as other hyacinths if necessary). In the spring fill 
your window-box with as many pots as it will hold, covering the rim of the 
]mts with soil, and—hear your neighbors and friends exclaim, “Oh! AVhat is 
THAT?” AVhen through blooming remove the i)ots to some location where the 
bulb can go dormant and make a growth, as it starts growing early in the fall. 
Repeat the process next year, and they will give you many years’ bloom if not 
forced. 
2. Group them in some S]mt where you want something low-growing, ])ar- 
ticularlv showv and different.

8. Use them at the foot of yoiir rock "arden. 
6 bulbs $1.16, 12 bulbs $2.20, 25 bulbs $4.30. 
Delightful "LITTLE COUSINS” of the Lilies 
(Natives of Oregon and California) 
In almost every state in the Union, you will find some of these flowers, grow¬ 
ing in the fields and pastures, along streams in the valley, or woodland, and 
sometimes on a steep hillside. But just as the native western lilies differ from 
the natives of the eastern states, so do many of these “cousins” differ from 
yours. 1 wish I could send you a colored picture of each one. They are lovely— 
and such a variety of colors.
