For making a handsome display in the garden 

 in the early spring, before we even dare plant our 

 summer flowering plants, there is nothing so 

 effective, nor none so reliable as the Tulip. It 

 may sleo be successfully grown in pots for the 

 house or greenhouse, 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 en- 

 riched, 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. Protect 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 £>, and so on in their order. The number 

 before the names denotes the height of their 

 growth in inches.
