Early-flowering 
TULIPS. 
c) se Tulip is always attractive 
from its beauty and bril- « 
liancy of color, and is one of the 
SS >> popular early spring flowers. A 
few bulbs scattered here and there pro- 
duce but little effect, but when planted in masses or in 
small groups, they become at once grand and brilliant, 
and eclipse in variety of coloring and picturesque effect 
almost any other flower. We only offer such kinds 




as can be used with perfect success either indoors or 
out in the garden. Tulips require cultural treatment similar 
to Hyacinths; the bulbs, being smaller, should not be planted 
so deep. When grown indoors put six bulbs in a 6-inch pan 
or pot. 
To assist in the selection of varieties that grow to the same 
height and bloom together we give directly after the name of 
each variety the average height in inches, those marked E 
come into bloom first, followed by those marked M, while the 
varieties marked L are the latest. 
pas-l[f Tulips are wanted by mail, add at the rate of 
5 cts. per dozen for postage.
