 EARI.Y TULIPS 



A border planted with one of the following collections forms 

 one of the most interesting and educational features of the garden, 

 and is the very best way to become familiar with the various va- 

 rieties, their colors, heights, time of blooming, etc., so you can 

 choose your own sorts when planting a bed or border.

DREER'S SUPERB MIXTURE OF 

 SEVGEE EAREY TUEIPS 



There are great differences in the grades of mixed Tulips. As 

 a rule they are made up Ijy the growers in Holland out of cheap, 

 undesirable or surplus lots, and little attention given to variety of 

 color cr lime cf flowering. 



We import each season a large quantity of selected bulbs of 

 the best-named varieties to make this superb mixture. It con- 

 tains a carefully balanced range of colors, and must not be com- 

 pared with mixtures as usually sent out, and notwithstanding 

 the great care to make this the finest mixture, we are in a posi- 

 tion to offer it at the price usually charged for a very inferior 

 grade. 30 cts. per doz.; $i.8o per loo; $15.00 per 

 1000. 



Collections of Tulips for Beds 



What we say on page 5 about the Hyacinth as a bedding plant is equally true of the Tulip. Many brilliant color effects are possi- 

 ble 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. The following beds are 6 feet in diameter and require 156 bulbs, planted 5 inches apart each way:
