B.  capitata 
Called California Hyacinth. Slender stems 
12 to 18 in. high terminate in a close cluster 
of violet-blue flowers. In mild climates flowers 
in October, six weeks after planting, and re- 
mains in bloom till March or April, producing 
as many as 20 flower stems from one bulb.

tion so greatly does it improve in the size and 
profusion of its bloom.
