DOUBLE TULIPS. 



Ifhy Parcel Post, add postage at zone rates; weight per 100, 7 lbs. 



AVERY ornamental and useful class, flowering usually about ten days or two weeks later than the Single Early Tulips. They are deservedly popu- 

 lar for bedding in both public and private grounds, the large paeony-like blossoms being highly decorative and of long duration. 



Farquhar's Rainbow Mixture. This mixture is composed of the best named 

 sorts of bedding Double TuUps, grown separately and put together in studied 

 proportions, and contains a liberal allowance of the sho^vy light colors. Per 

 doz., 60 cts.; per 100, S4.50; per 1,000, .S42.00. 



NAMED DOUBLE TULIPS. 



Double Tulips should be planted one sort in each bed, as grouping different 

 varieties does not produce such a good effect. The varieties marked 1 gener- 

 ally begin to flower the last week in April, those marked 2 about one week 

 later, and the latest to bloom are marked .3. The figures following the names 

 indicate the average height in inches. Those marked * are the best for forcing.
