TULIPS 



Garden Culture of Tulips — Any good soil, well enriched, will suit Tulips. October, or early November, is the 

 proper time to plant them. Set them 4 or 5 inches apart, and about 4 inches deep. Protect during severe months 

 of winter with a covering of straw or manure. 



All the early Tulips are adapted for pot culture in the house. Plant at least three or four bulbs in each pot. 



The earliest blooming varieties are marked a, next b, and so on in their order. The number before the name 

 denotes the hei5i:ht of their growth in inches. 25 bulbs of one kind at 100 rate; 250 at 1000 rate.
