S., PITTSBURGH, Bed of Hyacinths Specially Prepared Hyacinths for Very Early Flowering By a new method of treatment recently discovered by a Holland bulb-grower while experimenting with the object of hastening the maturity of the bulbs. Hyacinths can now successfully be brought into earlier bloom than has heretofore been possible. By this method, in which the maturity of the bulb is hastened, the flowers produced from them are not alone earlier, but larger and more perfect, with stronger spikes and larger bells. Our grower states that this new culture is a complete success; also that the forcing of Hyacinths from bulbs so treated was very easy and had already become popular in Holland. The bulbs we offer that have been subjected to this new method of treatment are not so large as our first-size Hyacinths, for the reason that it has been found that smaller bulbs give better results, the large bulbs producing too many small-sized flowers. We advise our customers who desire blooms at the earliest possible date to give these specially treated bulbs a trial. We offer this season the following varieties, all at 15c. ea., $ per doz.
