AUTUMN EDITION, DINGEE GUIDE TO ROSE CULTURE 



Dingee Surpassing Quality Tulips 



The dazzlin<^ beauty of the Tulip family is so well known that it is hardly necessary 

 to further extol its merits here. The brilliancy of colors when arrang'ed in masses in 

 the garden, on the lawn, or grown indoors in pots or boxes, makes the Tulip an object 

 of sirikin,^ beauty; indeed, for wealth of bizarre color effects, it even surpasses the hya- 

 cinth. Plant plenty of them — they are so inexpensive; in early spring, almost before 

 the last snows of winter are gone, the gorgeous colors of their flowers will add a won- 

 derful air of cheerfulness to your home surroundings. They are entirely hardy in the 

 open ground, and shouldj be planted about 4 inches deep and 4 inches apart. For in- 

 door culture plant them 3 inches deep. 



Like all Dingee bulbs, our offerings in Tulips are the best, both as regards quality 

 and variety. No "seconds" — each bulb is guaranteed to grow and bloom, or your 

 money back.
