COTTAGE, DARWIN AND BREEDER TULIPS AT OUR TRIAL GROUNDS. 
LATE FLOWERING TULIPS 
Under this heading are classed the Cottage or May Flowering, the Darwin, the Breeder, the 
Rembrandt and the Parrot Tulips. 
Ail are exceptionally desirable for garden decoration and with the possible exception of the Parrots 
are unsurpassed as a cut flower for vases or baskets. 
Hach year has shown a well merited increase in their popularity and we recommend unreservedly 
the planting of them, especially out of doors. 
All iate flowering tulips should be planted 4 to 6 inches deep and about 5 inches apart. Good drain- 
age being necessary, an inch or so of sand placed beneath the bulbs when planting will be found very 
desirable to drain off any surplus water. Protect the bulbs with a slight mulch of leaves, removing it as 
early in spring as growth commences. 
The letters D, E-, F, G, etc., following the name of a variety vefer to tts time of blooming when 
planted outdoors, they follow tn close succession the latest of the early flowering sorts. The height 1s 
given in inches.
