Collections of Single Early 

 Tulips for Beds 



What we say on page S about the Hyacinth as a bedding plant is equally 

 true of the Tulip. Many brilliant color effects are possible with Tulips 

 that cannot be produced with any other plant. The culture is the same as 

 for the Hyacinths, only, being perfectly hardy, they do not require to be 

 covered so heavily through the winter, but merely enough to keep the 

 action of the frost from throwing them out of place. When through 

 flowering, the bulbs may be lifted and dried off, and used another year, 

 or they may be left in the ground. The following beds are 6 feet in 

 diameter, and require 156 bulbs, planted 5 inches apart each way, and are 

 made up of the most approved sorts. If larger beds are wanted we will be 

 pleased to quote on receipt of dimensions and color combinations wanted.
