HENDERSON'S 
SPECIAL SELECTION 
OF VERY POPULAR 
LATE FLOWERING 
TULIPS 
We strongly recommend this class of Tulips for garden- 
decoration in beds as well as in groups in the herbaceous 
border and amongst shrubs. They bloom during the 
middle of May, a period when flowers, such as Roses and 
Iris have not yet come in bloom. 
Grown for cut-flowers, they prove very valuable for 
the decoration of rooms. By forcing in pots they may be 
had in bloom in February or March. 
The list of varieties we offer below have been carefully 
selected and are exquisite sorts.
