GALTONIA CANDICANS 
Hyacinthus Candicans 
The Great Snow White Summer Flowering Hyacinth. This 
Cape Hyacinth is a valuable summer-flowering bulb with 
long, slender leaves and a candelabra-like arrangement of 
thirty or so pure white, bell-shaped blossoms borne on a 
scape from 3 to 4 feet tall. Distributed about the borders 
in groups or massed against shrubbery, they are very ef- 
fective, giving lines of definition and strength to the riotous 
growth of summer flowers. Planted with Gladioli they 
form an imposing contrast and last a long time in bloom. 
In every way they may be treated like Gladioli, but south 
of Philadelphia the bulbs may be left out-of-doors over 
the winter with a light covering and will increase and give 
better results every year. Extra selected bulbs, $2.75 for 
10; $25.00 per 100.
