HYACINTHS 
The most natural, truly graceful Hyacinth 
plant is produced from medium or small sized 
bulbs. Hyacinths lose grace and strength when 
they gain 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 but not recommended for pot culture 
or forcing. These bulbs will produce elegant, 
graceful blooms in the garden and will increase 
in size each year. 
MIXED HYACINTHS. Stock of all hyacinths 
is becoming very scarce here in the United 
States, and we sold out on many named vari- 
eties last season so that all we can offer this 
year are mixed colors. This mixture will in- 
clude several shades of blue, cream, white, 
and some pink. A good mixture, but mixed 
colors only. Each 35e; doz. $3.50. 

HYACINTHS 
Autumn Blooming Colchicum 
(Fall Crocus) 
AUTUMNALE. This is the best known of the 
colchicums. Very free flowering, sending up 
bloom after bloom of soft rose-lilac flowers. 
One of the best for naturalizing. Order these 
early and they will bloom for you this fall. 
Each 25¢e; 5 bulbs for $1.00. 

CANDIDUM LILY 
CANDIDUM LILIES 
CANDIDUM LILIES (Madonna). For several 
years we have been growing a very nice 
strain of these lilies, and they have proved 
very resistant to disease common to this 
variety. The Candidum is widely grown, and 
a very beautiful lily. It blooms in early June 
and July, having tall stately spikes of pure 
white blossoms, deliciously fragrant. Should 
be planted in early fall, in a well drained situ- 
ation, Plant shallow, the tops of the bulbs 
not over 2 inches below the surface, and 
should be left undisturbed for years. ORDER 
EARLY. No shipments of this lily after
