HFtyacinths : Por fect Indoor Blooms 
Few flowers are capable of giving more lasting satisfaction than the Hyacinth. Sweet and delicate is their scent, and 
of a nature that everyone enjoys. Hardy and filled with energy, each Hyacinth produces its flowers time and again under 
the most adverse conditions, requiring little time or attention from you. Since the size of the flower is directly propor- 
tionate to the size of the bulb, it is important that you order the size best suited for the use you have in mind. 
Best results for indoor growing are obtained from the 18 centimeter or larger bulb. Greater vigor is naturally found 
in the larger size bulbs and this added vitality produces enormous trusses, causing them to attain to the peak of per- 
fection. The slight extra cost in ordering a few dozen of these larger bulbs is more than offset in the increased pleasure 
you will derive from them when they flower in your own living room in the winter. 
It is a simple matter to grow Hyacinths indoors during the winter months. They only require water and some sort 
of supporting medium such as soil. In special Hyacinth glasses, obtainable at small cost, they are grown in water 
alone. Hundreds of thousands of bulbs are so grown in England and throughout Europe. If Hyacinth glasses are not 
available, a common Mason fruit jar will serve the purpose.
