Our stock of SEEDS, BULBS, ETC., is of an unusually good quality, having beex grown and selected with the greatest care, and we feel confident will give general satisfac- tion. As the seed season continues only a few months in the year, there is of course a great pres- sure of business at this particular period. Except in cases of extreme urgency all orders will be executed in strict rotation as received. If our customers will kindly forward their order as soon as possible after the receipt of this catalogue, they will insure greater attention and very much oblige us. Every possible precaution is taken to prevent any error being committed in the execution and transmission of orders. Should, however,—as is rarely the case—any de- ficiency occur, either from press of business or accident, we will thank our customers for inform- ing us of the fact and hasten to correct it. We crave indulgence, and assure our customers that their orders will be executed with the least possible delay. Sometimes we are obliged to exe- cute ordersonly in part. This arises from the fact that some of our stock catalogued has not come to hand. Many of our seeds are procured from foreign countries, aud they do not always reach us just at the time expected. The balance of such orders, however, will be forwarded as soon as received. INDUCEMENTS FOR THE FORMATION OF CLUBS. Being desirous of introducing our seeds as extensively as possible throughout the country, we offer the following inducements to those who wish to purchase in large quantities; the seeds will be forwarded free by mail: Purchasers remitting $1.00 may select Seeds in packets, at Catalogue prices, am’ting to $1.10 “e “<é“ 2.00 “<é af sé ‘ec “< sé 2.95 “e ‘ce 3.00 ce “é . “c se “< 3.50 ce ce 5.00 ee ce “ ee ee ss 6.00 é ce 10.00 “ec sé sé “c sé ts 12.00 We wish it distinctly understoood by our correspondents that the above discount will be al- lowedupon Seeds in Packets only. How to Remit Money.—Kemittances of money may be sent at our risk, if for- warded according to the following directions, viz.: by Post-Office Money Order, Bank Drafts or Cash sent in Registered Letter. Money orders can now be obtained at nearly all the principal post-offices and cost only ten cents. This mode of remittance is prefer- able, and is perfectly safe from loss. Letters can be registered at any post-office by placing ten cents in postage stamps on the letter, in addition to the ordinary postage, and requesting the postmaster to register. This is safe, and will be sure to reach us. The Safe Arrival of Seeds is Guaranteed in all cases when orders are ac- companied by remittances as above stated, and should amy package fail to reach its destina- tion, we will, on being informed, after a reasonable time has elapsed for its arrival, send again. In such cases, customers will, when writing to us, please repeat the articles ordered. Name and Address.—Our correspondents will oblige us by writing their names, place of residence, County and State (or Territory), in full, and as plainly as possible. This is very important. When our customers leave the selection of Seeds to us, we will carefully discharge our trust, and endeavor to give perfect satisfaction. Seeds in quantity, Plants and Trees of our own growing, shipped by express vr freight, as desired. R. J. TRUMBULL, SUAC ICEEEEE ‘TRUMBUBE & BEBE.

RE We will send ee — ee Se The Hyacinth is one of the most beautiful and fragrant of the Bulbous Flowers, and is particularly desirable for either garden, pot or glass culture. The preferable season for planting Hyacinths in the garden is in October and November ; but they can be set out at any time, as long as the ground is open and the Bulbs sound. They will grow in almost any light, sae soil; but when the highest cultiva- tion is aimed at, they should be planted in a mixture composed of one-third river or sea sand, one-third well-rotted cow manure, and one-third good garden mold. The beds composed of the above com- post should be well dug. Bulbs should be planted about four inches deep, and from six to eight inches apart. For the culture of Hyacinths in pots prepare the above compost. On the size of the pot depends the nad we of Bulbs which may be planted in a single one; three or four Bulbs in a pot of six or seven inches in diameter has a rich and massive effect ; one or two Bulbs may be planted in proportionately smaller pots; two Bulbs of different colors are very effective and generally preferred. In potting, each Bulb should remain two-thirds above the surface of the soil; when thus planted, water them well to imbed the Bulbs firmly within the soil, allowing them to remain in this condition for three or four days ; then bury the pots in open ground to the depth of six inches, for six weeks. After the period adverted to, take up the pots and remove them to a moderately warm room, care being taken to screen the leaf-growth for a few days after being disembedded. They will need occasional watering. For culture in glasses the Bulbs should be so placed that only the base of each touch the water; then place them, for the first ten days, in a dark closet or room, to promote the shooting of the roots, after which expose them to the light and air. A small piece of char- coal, dropped into the glass, will keep the water pure, but the loss of water by evaporation should be restored from time to time. CHOICE HYACINTHS.

LANTS are known and described generally as Annuals, Biennials and Perennials. Annuals are those plants that flower and mature their seeds within a year after they are sown, and perish. This definition is in no way changed by the fact that many An- nuals may be managed as Biennials, or in other words, be sown in Autumn for flowering early the following season. Tender Annuals are those that require heat, and will not vegetate in the open ground until settled warm weather. Half-Hardy Annuals are those that will bear a slight frost, and may be sown in the open ground a little earlier than the tender annuals. Hardy Annuals are usually those which require no artificial heat during any period of their growth—every stage of their existence, from the time of sowing the seeds to maturity, being passed in the open ground. Biennials are those plants that flower the second, and sometimes the third year, after the seed is sown, and then perish. Perennials are those plants that live and generate their species for several years succes- sively. Biennials and Perennials are Tender, Half-Hardy and Hardy. Tender Biennials and Perennials, or greenhouse plants, are those that require artificial heat to protect them from the frost. Half-Hardy Biennials and Perennials are those that require a slight covering of straw or litter during the cold weather. Hardy Biennials and Perennials are those that will stand the coldest Winter weather without protection. Soils Most Suitable.—Perhaps the soil best adapted to a majority of plants is a light, friable loam, containing a moderate amount of vegetable matter and enough sand to ren- der it porous; but as it seldom happens that the amateur has a choice of soil, it is fortunate that most of them will succeed in any but such as is of an extremely dry or gravelly nature, or of a stiff, heavy, retentive quality. Manures.—The use of strong, crude manures should be carefully avoided. In ordinary good soil an annual dressing of decomposed stable manure, dug into the depth of about ten inches, and thoroughly incorporated with the soil, will be all that is needed. Time of Sowing.—With regard to the proper time for sowing Flower Seeds, much necessarily depends on the character of the season. As a general rule, hardy kinds may be sown in the open ground during February and March, hal/-hardy during the latter part of March and the first week of April, and ¢ender after the middle of April. Early Flowers.—The best method to obtain early flowers is to sow seed of the most de- sirable tender and half-hardy species in pots early in March. If kept in a warm greenhouse or window, or plunged into a moderate hot-bed, they will be ready to transplant to the open ground early in May. The season of blooming will be fully three weeks earlier thereby. Mode of Sowing.—Seeds may be sown in patches among the border plants, in rows or groups where they are to remain, or in a nursery bed and afterwards transplanted. As a gen- eral rule the surface soil should be rather dry than otherwise at the time of sowing; the opera- tion should not be undertaken when the ground is very wet, especially at an early period of Spring. The Depth at which seeds should be sown will vary with their size. Large seeds, such as Sweet Peas, should be sown about half an inch deep; medium-sized seeds, such as Balsams, Convolvulus, or Thunbergia, about a quarter of an inch deep; while such as are very small re- quire to be sown on the actual surface, a slight pressure being then sufficient to imbed them to a proper depth. If sown too deep they are longer in germinating; and the smaller ones are liable to decay, through want of strength to open the pores of the earth. In the absence of rain, water the seeds occasionally from a very fine rose watering pot. ILLUSTRATED CATALOGUE. 7 FLOW E Re SEEDS: ALL FLOWER SEEDS SENT FREE BY MAIL ON RECEIPT OF PRICE. E recommend the use of the ‘Cold Frame” described and illustrated elsewhere, for start- ing flowers and some of the more tender vegetable seeds; or, if not convenient, boxes or pots will answer if placed in a sheltered position. These can be tended with little trouble, and in them can be grown plants which will be in excellent condition to be set out after the heavy rains have ceased. To one who has had little experience in growing flowers, we would suggest that you try a few kinds first. One season's practical experience will be worth more to you than a large volume of theory.

Ourseeds are new,and of the best quality, having been raised by responsible growers, in whom we have perfect confidence. We invariably test our seed, that nothing may be sent out but what we know will vegetate, and prove true to the name and description. Aware of the importance to the Farmer and Gardener of having such seeds as can be relied upon, great care is used to sup- ply every article true to name and of good quality, but nothing is warranted. A large propor- tion of our seeds are grown by special contract with the most experienced growers in this country and in Europe; and we feel no hesitation in stating that no better seeds than those offered by us can be procured in this or any other country. Our rapidly increasing trade and satisfactory testi- monials, received from every section of the country, are sufficient proofs of their superior excellence. In consequence of the frequent fluctuations in the market, we cannot be bound by these prices for any length of time. Our customers may rest assured, however, that their orders shall at all times be executed upon as favorable terms as the state of the market will allow. We will send seeds in packets by mail, free of charge if the cash accompanies the order, and guarantee safe arrival. If by mail in quantities of four ounces and upwards, postage must be added at the rate of 16 cts. per pound. FOR EXTRA INDUCEMENTS, SEE PAGE 2. ARTICHOKE. Artichaut, Alcachofa, Artischoke.

NICE lawn is something every one wants, but only those can possess who have a plot of ground, a supply of water, and are willing to take the trouble and assume the expense necessary to produce it. The ground intended to be used for a lawn, whether large or small in area, if not naturally rich, should be covered to a depth of two inches with well-rotted manure. If this is not available, one or other of the bone or guano fertilizers should be used in the proportion of about 800 lbs. to the acre. The ground should be turned over to the depth of ten to twelve inches, well pulverized, and raked thoroughly, so that the surface may present a perfectly smooth appearance before seeding. Sow the seed evenly and plentifully, — for sparse seeding never pro- duced a good lawn in California, and never will. Rake it in, covering the seed as well as possible, and then top-dress the surface about one inch in depth with well-rotted manure. If nature does not furnish the desired moisture, it must be supplied artificially ; and this should be done in imi- tation of a gentle rain, and, as often as necessary, sprinkling the entire surface until it is wet. The top-dressing is almost an absolute necessity, as it greatly protects the seed while in course of Jaa and, when germination has taken place, furnishes the stimulus so essential to rapid growth. When the grass has attained a height of two inches, it should be cut, if possible, with a lawn- mower. Cutting should be kept up at intervals as required. Frequent cutting aids largely in compactness of growth, and should not be omitted. The best grass for lawn purposes, if water in abundance is obtainable, is what is known as ‘* Kentucky Blue,” and the highest grade of fresh seed should be procured even at greater cost. Sixty pounds of the ‘‘ Fancy Clean” should be sown to an acre, and etghty pounds if the quality is not so high. Fancy Clean Kentucky Blue Grass Seed, 25 cts. per lb. Per 100 lbs., $16.60. When only a limited supply of water is available, Perennial Rye Grass should be sown. A lawn produced from this seed is, on occount of its true green color, preferred by some. Sow of this seed at the rate of eighty pounds to the acre. Perennial Rye Grass Seed, extra quality, 25 cts. per lb. Per 100 lbs., $9.00. { Herb Seeds.

Already several millions of this tree have been planted in this State. Except in the more northerly counties, where the- climate is rather severe, it succeeds admirably, adapting itself to any kind of soil, and growing with astonishing rapidity. For fuel and manufacturing it is alike invaluable. There are thousands of acres which might be profitably used in growing this tree, and so cheap are the young trees and the seed at the present time, that they come within the reach of those in the most humbie circumstances. An ounce numbers 3000 seeds, which may be had for 60 cts. This, if handled according to the directions which follow, will produce 2000 trees ; or young trees, ranging in size from six to fifteen inches, suitable for planting out on a large scale, may be had at from $12 to $25 per 1000. But few, if any, opportunities present themselves for the in- vestment of a small or large capital—so sure to pay a handsome profit—as the culture of the Blue Gum tree in California. Culture. Make boxes about two feet long by sixteen inches wide, and from three to four inches deep, making small holes in the bottom for drainage. Fill up to within half an inch of the top with fine, alluvial soil, moderately rich. Smooth the surface, sprinkle the seed evenly over it, and cover with an eighth of an inch of soil composed of half sand. To attain the best results, the boxes should be placed in a ‘‘cold frame,” described elsewhere. If sown in Summer, the glass should be shaded by a covering of whitewash or light muslin. In the absence of glass, make a frame of boards, with a movable cover made of laths, nailed from 4 to 4 inch apart, under which place the boxes. Water will be needed daily if the weather is warm and little moisture in the atmosphere, and should be applied with a fine sprinkler. Seed will germinate in from eight to fourteen days. . When plants are two inches high, begin to ‘‘harden” them by allowing air, in- creasing from time to time until they have become hardy enough to withstand the hot sun of the day and the cool air of the night. When six inches or more high, they may be transplanted to a temporary or permanent place, care being taken to remove the plants with some earth attached to the roots, at least not to allow the roots to be exposed to the atmosphere. For forest culture, the young trees should be planted from eight to twelve feet apart each way, and between the rows should be cultivated for two years, when they will be strong enough in trunk and root to care for themselves. Per oz. 75 cts.; per lb. $6.00. We havea large stock of trees of various sizes, all transplanted, some of which we offer as low as $15 to $25 per 1000. These will vary from 10 to 14 inches in height. Other sizes at from $4 to $20 per 100, and extra sized, showy trees from 6 to 10 feet, at from 50 cents to $1 each. The largest sizes will be balled and packed ready for shipment. 36 TRUMBULL & BEEBE'S Monterey Cypress, and its Gulture- (Cupressus Macrocarpa.) None of our native California trees have thus far attained so much popularity as the Monterey Cypress. Indeed, more of these trees have been planted than of all other native trees combined. It is being largely used for hedges and break-winds, and thousands of the trees are annually planted for these purposes. But as an ornamental evergreen tree it has few equals. It is tolerably hardy, and adapts itself to almost any kind of soil, situation or method of culture. It may be pruned with impunity, and its growth shaped to suit any taste. For the first two years, its growth is comparatively slow, but so rapid a grower is it afterwards, that, when six years old, it will contain as much wood as a Blue Gum of the same age. These remarks apply equally to ‘““Cupressus McNabiana,” another valuable native evergreen, which is closely allied to ‘«Cupressus Macrocarpa.” Per oz. 30 cts.; per lb. $1.50. Culture. Soil for bottom and top same as used for Blue Gum. Use boxes of the same size. They should be started in ‘‘hot-beds” described elsewhere. If these are not obtainable, soak the seed about twelve hours in hot water, which will hasten germination, and place boxes in a “‘ cold frame,” such as described elsewhere in this ‘‘Guide.” Seed will germinate in from two to four weeks. Treat afterwards in same manner as instructed for ‘‘Blue Gums.” We have a large supply of the ‘“‘Monterey Cypress” in boxes, well grown, from six to twelve inches high, which we offer at from $2.50 to $5 per 100. (A liberal discount on large orders.) Larger sizes, balled, ranging in price from 15 to 75 cents each, depending on size and number ordered. . i, capt lee Sect oe es 20c.
