 | | Dotted in clumps in the flower borders, and arranged in masses of well-contrasted colors in beds in the flower garden, there are no flowers which impart during their seasonMarch and Aprila gayer tone to the parterre. | | | Woen the flowers are fairly open, they may be removed to the greenhouse or conservatory. | | | Few plants are better adapted than the hyacinth for pot culture as greenhouse decorative plants; and by the aid of forcing they may be had in bloom as early as Christmas. |

| | Dutch Bulbs. Chapter 3: Hyacinth or Iris? |
| | Hyacinth flowers are cut close down to the leaves; sometimes the cut blooms are scattered over the ground, where other sorts of bulbs, as yet not showing shoots, are growing, this to prevent the light sandy soil from being blown away, leaving the bulbs beneath bare. | | | Hyacinth flowers are cut off before their beauty is quite spent, so that they shall not come to seed. | | | Of course there would be difficulties in the way, the flowers have too much moisture to allow of their being steam-distilled, like roses and some other scent-providing flowers, and to pomade them, as violets are pomaded, would be rather a costly process. |
