This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1912 edition. Excerpt: ...moderately well for a number of years. But the room required is of more value than the cost of the bulbs. Dutch-Roman Hyacinth.--The Dutch growers are now competing with the French growers with the above named variety, which is claimed to be superior. Those who have given it a fair trial do not admit its superiority, and say that it is simply a selection of small bulbs of extra early Dutch Hyacinth. We think this is a mistake, and believe the "Dutch-Romans"to be a distinct variety of Hyacinthus orientatis, known as albulus (small white) quite distinct from the Koman.

It is a native of Spain, Italy and Russia. It closely resembles the Scilla, and has been included in that genus as 8. patula. Treat the same as the Dutch Hyacinth. The Varieties and Synonyms of Hyacinths are given in the following table: Californian Hyacinth.--See Brodiaea. Page 45. Cape Hyacinth.--See Scilla brachyphilla. Dutch Hyacinth.--See Page 138. Dutch-Roman Hyacinth.--See Page 155. Fair Haired Hyacinth.--See Muscari comosum. Grape Hyacinth.--See Muscari botryoides. Persian Hyacinth.--See above. Roman Hyacinth.--'See Page 153. Star Hyacinth.--See Scilla amoena. Starch Hyacinth.--See...
