We advise the planting of the named varieties of 
these, as our experience with them is, that the mixed 
varieties are not mixed; that but two or three distinct 
sorts are all that are usually to be found in the so-called 
mixtures. As variety is especially desirable in this pecu- 
liar class, and as the bulbs are not expensive, named 
sorts only should be used. 
Double Tulips.—In both the early and late sorts 
there are double forms, which are valued highly by some, 
not only for their display, but because they continue 
longer in bloom than the single forms. The following 
list includes the most desirable for bedding purposes :
