Tulips. 
SHERE is, perhaps, no ornament of the garden that can compare to the dazzling splendor 
of the Tulip. Its varieties comprise the most valuable class of hardy bulbs for decorative 
effect in the garden during the early Spring months. The absence of difficulty in their 
) culture, and their requiring no protection whatever after planting, brings them within the 
scope of all lovers of flowers. No other tribe of plants, whether of early or Jate blooming 
character, combines so much picturesque effect, and so much glowing combination of color, 
with the same neat aud diminutive style of growth. _ 
The time to plant Tulips is in October and November, and for early forcing, in September. 
Any good garden s0:1 is suitable, yet it is desirable to see that the beds are well drained. When 
planting, each bulb should be surrounded with sand to prevent them rotting. Plant about 
four inches deep, and from five to six inches apart ; if allowed to remain untouched in the 
beds throughout the year they will bloom freely the second year. Tulips succeed admirably 
in pots, vases, boxes for sitting-room decoration, &c., &c.
