Cottage or Mayflowering Tulips 



(LATE FLOWERING SINGLE) 



The Tulips belonging to this class owe their name to the fact that many of them have been found growing in gardens of country 

 houses and cottages in England and France. They flower long after the other varieties of Tulips are gone, and are unsurpassed for garden 

 decorations and for a succession. 6 cents each ; 65 cents per dozen.

Old Dutch or Breeder Tulips 



The Breeder Tulips are the unbroken forms of the o'd florists' Tu'ips. The blooms strongly resemble the Darwin Tulips, excepting 

 hat they have an entirely different range of color, comprising artistic tones of bronze, terra cotta, orange, and brown. Breeder Tulips 

 are May-flowering, producing blooms of enormous size, and because they are vigorous growers are valuable for the garden. We have 

 taken great pains to select only choicest varieties, and can heartily recommend these to anyone who wishes comething especially fine.

Mixed Tulips 



We have a large stock of unnamed Tulips for bedding, which we price so low as to make a large mass of these showy flowers'a'matter 

 of a trifling expense. They are excellent bulbs, and wi.l bear handsome blooms. Double and single collections are kept separate. Sev- 

 eral hundred bulbs at the quotations below involve less expense than is required to secure a few summer bedding plants, and they are 

 fully as valuable.

Tulips 



Tulips should be put into the ground 

 when the leaves begin to fall from decid- 

 uous trees. This is probably a better 

 guide of the time of planting than any 

 definite date would be, since climatic con- 

 ditions vary so much. 



After planting, a litter of leaves should 

 be placed over the beds as soon as a thin 

 crust of the ground is frozen. This cover 

 should be removed early in the spring, 

 before the Tulips have a chance to come 

 through the ground.
