=— TULIPS ^— 



FOR FORCING AND OPEN GROUND. 



There is an increasing demand for Tulips, especially La Heine, Keizerkroon. Tellow Prince, Tournesol 

 and Chrysolora, and florists tiave made money out of them. 



The letters A. B and C indicate earliness of 

 blooming. Those marked A are earliest, B next, 

 and then C. stands for late. 



We have given special attention to the selection 

 of our Tulips, and our collection is unusually fine, 

 embracing the choicest leading varieties. For 

 early forcing, the Due van Thol and early single 

 sorts are best. They should be started in Sep- 

 tember, and treated the same as Hyacinths. Early 

 in November they may be removed into heat. 

 The greater part ought to be potted from the 

 middle of September to the end of October. For 

 outdoor planting they should be set three to four 

 inches deep, and four to six inches apart, accord- 

 ing to the size of the bulb. A few bulbs planted 

 here and there produce but little efifect, but when 

 planted in masses, or in small groups, they be- 

 com.e at once brilliant and grand, and surpass 

 in variety of coloring and picturesque efifect al- 

 most any other flower.
