clumps of three, six or twelve. Set 8

covered.

These Hyacinth bulbs come to us in two sizes. The largest, called by our growers in Holland ‘Exhibition Size,”’ 19 centimeters or more in cir- 
cumference, are the best for forcing indoors, also for show gardens when particularly large blooms are wanted for display. Our most popular size 
for the garden, 16 to 17 centimeters, is offered in the same varieties shown above. Hyacinths are easily grown indoors during the winter.
