BODDINGTQN^S BRILLIANT TULIPS 



FOR BEDDING OR FORCING (FIRST SIZE BULBS ONLY) 



There is one important difference between Hyacinths and Tulips. Under similar treatment most Hyacinths flower about the same time, 

 while Tulips come into bloom at successive periods. The divergence has frequently been the source of much disappointment, for, in a bed 

 (or even a vase or pot) planted with different Tulips, one variety may be overblown before others show their colors. For brilliant bedding 

 effects, solid masses of color are to be preferred, especially for design bedding. 



For cultural directions under glass, see Hyacinths, page 3. The treatment to be followed is exactly the same. Tulips for bedding 

 should be planted about 6 inches apart and about 4 inches deep, reckoning from the tops of the bulbs. 



The figures following the varieties indicate earliness in flowering: No. i being the earliest; No. 2 following ; No. 3 being still a little 

 later, but coming into bloom before the No. 2's are out. The height is indicated by "d" for dwarf, "m" for medium, and "t" for tall.
