Hyacinths Bring to th 
CULTURE IN POTS: Use any good soil, mixed with sand, potting 
so as to leave the top of the bulb even with the soil. For a single plant, 
use 4- or 5-inch pot, but the effect will be prettier if several bulbs are 
planted in a larger pot, and still more effective if all are of one color. 
Press the soil firmly around the bulbs, but do not pack it underneath. 
Sink the pot in the earth about 6 inches, covering with soil, choosing 
a location that is not too wet. For a succession of blooms, bring the 
first out about December Ist, and every two weeks thereafter, until 
February Ist. Keep moderately warm and when they begin to bloom, 
give plenty of water and as much fresh air as possible. Too much 
heat dries up the flower and shortens the blooming period. 
CULTURE IN OPEN GROUND: Any good garden soil will suit. 
If clay or very heavy, do not cover more than 3 inches; if light, from 
4 to 6 inches. Protect with manure, leaves or coarse litter to prevent 
freezing.

ROMAN HYACINTHS 
BLUE, WHITE and PINK 
The flowers, while smaller than those of the Dutch Hyacinths, are 
borne in much greater abundance, each producing about 6 graceful 
spikes of blooms, which makes it a most valuable sort for cutting. 
They can be forced very easily, and if planted early and brought into 
the house at intervals of about two weeks, will yield a succession of 
blooms from Christmas to Easter.
