~yHE same soil and treatment recommended for Hyacinths 

 * will answer all the requirements of the Tulip. A few 

 bulbs scattered here and there produce but little effect, 

 but when planted in masses, or in small groups, they become 

 at once grand and brilliant, and eclipse, in variety of color- 

 ing and picturesque effect, almost any other flower. Our 

 collection is unusually fine, embracing all the choicest vari- 

 eties. For early forcing the Due van Thol and early single 

 sorts are best. They should be started in September, and 

 treated same asHyacinths. 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 out-door 

 planting they should be set 3 to 4 inches deep, and 4 to 6 

 inches apart, according to the size of the bulb.
