Tulips are such universal favorites that it is scarcely necessary to dwell upon their merits here. In them we possess a range of colors 

 and combination of shades which no other class affords; besides, the standard sorts are so reasonable in price that they can now be planted 

 in quantity. For bedding, pot culture and forcing for cut flowers in winter they are invaluable. 



CULTURE. The cultural directions given for hyaeinthg on page 1 can be applied to Tulips, except tha,t the bulbs being smaller must not be planted quite so deep. 

 Four to iive inches to the bottom of the bulb is deep enough and a distance of 4 to 6 inches between the bulbs is sufficient. They may be planted in October and November 

 before the ground freezes. For pots, sis to eight bulbs in a 7 inch pan is very satisfactory.
