For making: a handsome display in the garden in 

 the early spring - , before we even dare plant our sum- 

 mer flowering- plants, there is nothing: so effective, 

 nor none so reliable as the Tulip. It may also be 

 successfully erown in pots for the house or green- 

 house, and when so grown is treated about the same 

 as the Hyacinth. Nothing: can be more handsome 

 than a good-sized pot with several bulbs of various 

 varieties of these in it, and in full bloom. 



Garden Culture.— Any good soil, well enriched, 

 will suit these bulbs. October, or early in November, 

 is the proper time to plant them. Set them four or 

 five inches apart, and about three inches deep. Pro- 

 tect them during the severe months of winter with a 

 covering of straw or manure. The after culture is 

 the same as recommended for the Hyacinth. 



The earliest blooming varieties are marked a, next 

 b, and so on in their order. The number before the 

 names denotes the height of their growth in inches. 



For 40 cents we will mail 3 

 each of the splendid Tulips il* 

 lustrated on cover. No. 1, Yel- 

 low Prince; No. 2, Proserpine; 

 No. 3, Dusart; No. 4, Keiser- 

 kroon.
