Gnragrant HYACINTHS 
FOR EARLY SPRING BLOOM 
One of the fascinations of gardening is to watch Hyacinth blooms begin to show 
color in the garden. In our Nursery Garden plantings they show through about 
the first week in March and it takes them 10 days or more to grow to their full 
height. Colorful and fragrant, the flowers last a long time, and the bulbs may 
be left in the ground to bloom year after year. Plant them 6 or 7 inches deep 
in groups here and there in the garden. Cutting the flower trusses does not 
injure the bulbs if you leave the foliage to die down in summer. 
EXHIBITION HYACINTHS 
FOR INDOOR BLOOM 
To fully enjoy the lovely fragrance of Hyacinths, you may grow them in the 
popular Hyacinth glass or plant them in pots of Hallawell’s Bulb Fiber and 
keep them in a cool place until they are ready to bloom. In our San Francisco 
climate we set the pots in bright daylight, outdoors, until the flower truss be- 
gins to show color. The exhibition size are best for this purpose. They grow 
very large trusses and are usually of perfect form. Exhibition Hyacinths may 
also be grown in the garden in mass plantings where they will make a grand 
display.
