BULBS ^°^mLL PLANTING 



ii>mLBmHRii\ 



Cottage Garden Tulips 



This beautiful class is quite distinct from the early flowering, Darwin and other sorts 

 offered, coming into bloom in the vicinity of Philadelphia about May 10th, or two or 

 three weeks later than the early-flowering types, and extending the Tulip season over 

 a period of four weeks or more. 



On account of their extreme hardiness, and long lasting qualities, they are specially 

 adapted for the permanent hardy flower border. They may also be naturalized in grass, 

 wild gardens, etc. For bedding they are 

 superb, while as cut flowers, having long stems 



with flowers of great substance, they stand in mgmm^ Bs'* >' 



perfect condition for a long time. In planting, W^ff''^^ !• f >vM 



the bulbs should be set a little deeper than 

 early tulips, a covering of 4 inches being about 

 right.
