FIRST-CLASS SELECTED BULBS 4^AII Single Hyacinths succeed well in glasses and when forced. We consider the Single Hyacinths more useful and valuable than the double varieties. They are better for forcing, more vigorous in growth, and produce stronger spikes of bloom, which are generally of better substance and are at least as beautiful as those of the double sorts.
