BULBS FOR AUTUMN PLANTING ^ 



Hendersons Superior Double Early- Flowering TulipS 



STANDARD VARIETIES AND NOVELTIES. 



3^= REMEMBER THAT OUR TULIP BULBS ARE SELECTED LARGEST SIZE, NOT -SECONDS" SO OFTEN SENT OUT AT A LOWER PRICE 



TROUBLE 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 for mingling 

 dn clumps of half a dozen or more around the edges of shrubbery. The early sorts (those indicated by an " 1 " or " 2 ")do splendidlv 

 when grown in pots for winter blooming; but must be forced much slower than Single Early Tulips by keeping the'm cooler. 



The figures following the varieties indicate their earliness; those marked " 1 " flower together and are the earliest; those marked *' 2 " follow, etc. 

 The height is indicated by " D " for dwarf; " M " for medium, and " T " for tall.
