UMultiflora 
DUTCH HYACINTHS 
Last year was our first to list the Multiflora 
Hyacinths, which are similar to the illustration 
at the right. We have had good reports from 
the results obtained, even though not all bulbs 
produced eight blossoms. Most of them appear 
to have had between five and seven fairly 
eood-sized flowers. All of them had at least 
two big stems with as many as 18 individual 
florets. 
These bulbs are exceptionally well suited to 
indoor culture. They may be planted any time 
after October 15 indoors, or from September to 
December for outdoor bloom. A few of these 
planted in pots make an ideal small gift. 
Three colors: Rose, White and Blue. Each 
bulb is packed separately, with cultural in- 
structions. No orders accepted after July 20. 
Each 60c; 3 for $1.50; 12 for $5.50. 
Additional Hyacinths are listed on page 28 
and the back cover.
