1 AVtumne Iacinth is the least of all the Iacinths: it hath small narrow grassy leaues spread abroad vpon the ground; in the middest whereof springeth vp a small naked stalke an handfull high, set from the middle to the top with many small starre-like blew floures, hauing certaine small loose chiues in the middle. The seed is blacke contained in small huskes: the root is bulbous.
2 The great Winter Iacinth is like vnto the precedent, in leaues, stalkes, and floures, not dif∣fering in any one point but in greatnesse.
‡ 3 To these I thinke it not amisse to adde another small Hyacinth, more different from these last described in the time of the flouring, than in shape. The root of it is little, small, white, longish, with a few fibres at the bottome; the leaues are small and long like the last described. The stalke, which is scarce an handfull high, is adorned at the top with three or foure starry floures of a blewish Ash colour, each floure consisting of six little leaues, with six chiues and their poin∣tals, of a darke blew, and a pestill in the middest. It floures in Aprill. ‡
