HOLLAND HYACINTHS 
It gives us deep satisfaction to again offer these genuine symbols of peace, HOLLAND 
BULBS. By way of celebration we made our first post-war planting of Holland Hyacinths 
in our Nursery Gardens, and at this writing are enjoying their stately beauty and de- 
lightful fragrance. 
Hyacinths may be grown in pots or garden. In mild winter climates, outdoor plant- 
ing is preferable. 
Our extra size bulbs produce exceptional quality of long uniform 
spikes, Plant tive or six inches deep and 6 to lu inches aypar..

they first appear. In mass plantings they 
are a joy; drifts of crocuses where there 
is room or a crocus corner in a small gar-
