TULIPS. 



Add for postage on Tulips at the rate of 5 cts. per dozen when ordered to be sent by mail. 

 We have given special attention to the selection of our Tulips and our 

 collection is unusually fine, embracing the choice leading varieties. For early 

 forcing the Due van Thol and early single sorts are best. They should be started 

 in September 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 8 to 4 inches deep, and 4 to 6 in- 

 ches apart, according to the size of 

 the bulb. A few bulbs planted here 

 and there produce but little effect, 

 but when planted in masses, or in 

 small groups, they become at once 

 brilliant and grand, and surpass in 

 variety of coloring and picturesque 

 effect almost any other flower. 



The letters A, B and C indicate 

 earliness of blooming. Those marked 

 A are earliest, B next, and then C. 

 L stands for late.
