FARQUHAR'S SINGLE MAY-FLOWERING OR COTTAGE GARDEN TULIPS. 



I HE May-Flowering Tulips are usually in full bloom about Memorial Day and generally last well into June. Not only do they prolong 

 » the Tulip season but in grandeur of form and richness of their colors surpass most of the earlier classes. They are splendid subjects 



for natural plantations, for clumps in herbaceous perennial borders as well as for formal beds. For cutting they are even better than 



the early tulips — the flowers being stronger and lasting longer.
