BEDDING TULIPS. 



Wiiite Hawk, previously referred to in 

 the Kkvikw as a grand all-roinul tulip 

 for any and every purpose, can liardly 

 be overprai.sed, according to a writer in 

 the Gardeners' Magazine. It has a good 

 and long stalk, while its purity of itdor 

 and lovely bold shape make it not only a 

 grand betlder to associate with the reds 

 and crimsons llowering from the middle 

 to the end of April, but a most delight- 

 ful tlower for cutting. .Nothing coula be 

 more superb than a l)od of Louleur de 

 < ;irdiiial edged with a broad b:in<l of 

 White Hawk. 



Jacuba van l?eijeren is a line tulip, 

 pure in color, and so still" and .strong 

 that it stands ba<l weather better than 

 any other white, except perhaps Queen 

 of the Whites and La Triompluinte. The 

 latter, however, hardly can be described 

 as pure white, as it is Ihislied slightly 

 on the outside of the petals with rose, 

 •lacoba van Heijeren, however, rarely 

 grows over fourteen indies high. M.aas 

 is a grand bedder, but so early that its 

 huge blooms are lial)le to become frost-

(h1. Vosuvius is the best first-p.Trly tulip 

 among the searlet shatles; its fine point- 

 ed flowers on stiff and long stailts make 

 it a grand bedder, and a.s a comiiaiiiiin 

 litiier Prince de Ligny or Queen of tiie 

 Whites is good. 



If I had to seleet the best dozen flow- 

 ers for cutting, Tuli[ia retrofle.xa would 

 certainly ix- one of tti(Mti. Its long, 

 slcniler stems make a somewliat shel- 

 tcretl spot a necessity for it. A bed of 

 it, some 2,000 strong, under a south wall, 

 w.as this year a glorious sight, and I had 

 no dilTiculty in marketing every bloom.
