:hgli Early Flowirimg Tulips. 



Tulips take front rank among the most beautiful of all hardy bulbous plants. For richness, variety and delicate bril- 

 liancy of coloring they cannot be surpassed. To fully appreciate the dazzling magnificence of Tulips, a bed of them, how- 

 ever small, should be planted for early Spring bloom. The bulbs are entirely hardy in any part of our country, and the cul- 

 ture is simple and sure of success. For open-ground planting dig at least one foot deep, and grade the bed so that water will 

 run off. Plant when convenient during September, October or early November ; set the bulbs 4 or 5 inches deep and about 

 5 inches apart each way. In the Spring, after blooming, and when the stems turn yellow, the bulbs may be taken up (so as 

 to make room for Summer flowers), cleaned and stored in a dry, cool place where they will be ready for replanting in the 

 house during Winter. Tulips are also exceedingly satisfactory and handsome flowers for house culture in pots. The early 

 flowering varieties are best for this purpose; set several bulbs in a large pot, box or suitable vessel and treat like Hyacinths 

 in pots. IVf make a g}-eat specialty of Tulips, and believe we impoyt the finest quality of bulbs 7-eceived in (his cou?it?y.
