PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— BULBS FOR AUTUMN PLANTING. 



k OUBLE TULIPS have massive flowers of brilliant and varied colors, shades" 

 and markings, and, being double, the flowers last much longer in bloom 

 than single varieties, and, in consequence, when singles and doubles are 

 planted in conjunction the "time of the Tulips" is greatly prolonged. 

 Double Tulips are beautifully adapted for beds on the lawn, in the garden, and fur 

 mingling in clomps of half a dozen or more around the edges of shrubbery. They are 

 robust growers and exceedingly effective. The early sorts ( those indicated by an "A " or "B") do splendidly when grown in pots for winter 

 blooming, but must be forced much slower than Single Early Tulips, by keeping them cooler. 



The letters following - the varieties indicate their earliness ; those marked "A" flower together and are the earliest ; 

 those marked "B" follow, etc. The figures indicate the average height in inches.
