PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEAV YORK.— BULBS. 



HP* 



ULIPS are such universal favorites that it is scarcely 



necessary to expatiate upon their merits here. 



Their ease of culture combined with beauty of 



form and gorgeous coloring render them the most popular 



bulbs grown for spring bedding, and for winter flowering in the greenhouse and window garden they are in- 

 JS^* comparable. The Tulip is extremely hardy, and of easy culture, flowering as freely in the shade as in the 



sunshine, and producing as fine flowers in a confined town garden, as in a more favored place. Double and 

 » sinele Tulips, when associated together and planted in front of shrubs, maintain a longer display, than if 



either are separately planted. In gardens whe-re the flower beds are to be kept gay from the earliest day of 

 Spring, plant between the lines of Tulips. Scilla sibirica, Chionodoxa luciliae, Snowdrops, or Crocus, and as 

 these flower first, tney can be removed or cut down when the Tulip is coming into bloom. 



The Single Tulip has a greater variety of rich, delicate, and attractive colors than any other section of spring-flowering bulbs. Those only who have 

 different varieties, planting the bulbs 5 inches apart, can form an idea of their beauty and their great diversity in shade a
