Giant Flowered HYACINTHS 
The Finest for Beds, Borders and for Growing Indoors 
Among the many flowers that can be grown from fall-planted bulbs the hyacinth stands at the 
top of the list. It is probably the easiest flower to grow in pots or bowls, and what could be more 
decorative or attractive than a display of hyacinths in the house during the winter or early spring! 
Equally effective and beautiful are beds, borders or groups here and there among perennials or in 
the front of shrubbery. One of the easiest flowers to grow anywhere.

showy florets. Our mammoth bulbs are carefully selected, of the highest quality, and particularly desirable 
for beds, borders, pots or glasses, where the largest flower-spikes are wanted.
