BULBS AND SEEDS FOR AUTUMN, 1896. 



7 



TULIPS. 



BED OF TULIPS 6 FEET IN DIAMETER, REQUIRING 200 BULBS PLANTED 5 INCHES APART. 



'PHE Tulip can supply a brilliancy and vividness of coloring unapproached by other spring flowers, and 

 the rich shadings and markings upon its petals are as varied as tliey are bright. It is as hardy as 

 the hyacinth and as easy to grow, requiring the same conditions of culture, and retaining its beauty 

 •without deterioration for a number of 3'ears. For most satisfactory- results only the named varieties 

 are recommended for bedding. Select those sorts which bloom at the same time and grow to one 

 heighth, or if not all of one height, plant the taller sorts in the center.
