FRAGRANT GARDEN HYACINTHS 
FOR EARLY SPRING BLOOM 
One of the fascinations of gardening is to see 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 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. 
Medium large 15-16 centimeter bulbs, 85c each; 12 for $3.00; 100 for $20.00; 
1000 for $180.00

EXHIBITION HYACINTHS 
FOR GARDEN OR INDOOR BLOOM 
To fully enjoy the lovely fra- 
grance of hyacinths, you may 
grow them in the popular hya- 
cinth glasses, or plant them in 
pots of Hallawell’s Bulb Fibre 
and keep them in a cool place un- 
til they are ready to bloom. In 
our San Francisco climate we set 
the pots in bright daylight, out- 
doors, until the flower truss be- 
gins to show color. The exhibition 
size are best for this purpose. 
They grow very large trusses and

grown in the garden in mass
