) “> Fragrant GARDEN HYACINTHS 
 ~ 9; For Early Spring Bloom 
For beauty and fragrance combined, hyacinths are unsurpassed among spring flowering 
bulbs. They may be used very effectively for edgings, or in groups among other flowers. 
Plant the bulbs 6 to 7 inches deep and about 6 to 8 inches apart. 
In light well drained soil which is not subjected to winter freezing the bulbs may be left 
in the ground but the general rule is to lift them after the tops have died down about July. 
Store them in shallow trays and dust with dusting sulphur. Planting time varies with the 
climate conditions. In the mild winter sections of California we recommend planting about 
November. Keep them moist by deep irrigation as often as is necessary. 
Our GARDEN hyacinths are medium sized bulbs and are intended mainly for 
outdoor planting where they will produce beautiful large spikes of flowers.

Exhibition Hyacinths 
For Garden or Indoor Bloom 
These extra large bulbs will produce giant spikes of lovely flowers. 
They are intended for garden planting or for pots, hyacinth glasses, etc., where the largest 
spikes are desired. In our San Francisco climate we keep the potted hyacinths outdoors in 
the shade until they are ready to bloom, then they may be taken into the house.

GLASS 
CULTURE 
Fill the glass with water to al- 
most touch the base of the bulb. 
Water evaporation will moisten 
the tiny root points and set 
them in action. Keep the glass 
in a cool dark place, on the 
floor in a cold corner of the 
basement (or similar place) cov- 
ered with a box to keep them 
dark, add water occasionally to 
keep glass filled. 
Bring them to light and warmth 
when the flower buds are three 
inches above the bulb, not be- 
fore. To bring them out sooner 
may mean disappointing re- 
sults.
