.10 THE DINGEE & CONARD COMPANY. The Best Named Hyacinths for House Culture. WE OFFER FIRST=CLASS, WELL-RIPENED BULBS OF THE FIRST OR LARGER SIZE. It is not often that one family of flowers are invested with so many charming qualities as are Hyacinths. Nature must have conceived them in one of her most gracious moods. Of them it may be truthfully said that for massive yet graceful beauty, superb finish of flower, diversity of color and delicious fragrance, they are unequaled by any flower.

We offer the choicest and most distinct varieties, recommended as the best toy our Holland bulb-grower. None tout first-size bulbs sold.
