 six in a pot.

JONQUIL NARCISSUS. 



These are graceful and pretty, and are much piized for iheir fragrance. They are valuable for the 

 decoration of the conservatory, sitting-room, and flower garden, and require the same cultural treatment 

 as Polyanthus Narcissus, except that three or four roots should be planted in a four or five-inch, and five 

 or six in a six-inch pot, and should not be forced till the turn of the year.

THE TULIP. 



EARLY TULIPS. 



For Winter and Spring gardening, Early Floweiing Tulips, double and single, are indispensable, 

 and whether gro'ira in pots, ornamental vases, jardinets, Ac, for in-door decoration; in flower boxes, 

 rustic vases, or in the open groimd, their brilliant and diversified colours produce a pleasing and striking 

 effect. Their extreme hardiness, ceitaiiity of blooming, and the absence of aU difficulty in their culti- 

 vation, distinctly entitle them to a preference in the choice of occupants for the Spring flower garden, 

 while their cheapness enables every lover of a flower garden to plant them extensively. 



Those who may only have small .shaded town gardens need not be afi'aid to plant Tulips freely ; we 

 can assure theui that they succeed well even ia such positions, and remain longer in bloom than if grown 

 ill situations where they would be exposed to the influence of the sun. 



EARLY SINGLE TULIPS. 



No Tulips display so great a variety of delicate, striking, and attractive colours as these. 



Culture in Pots is the same as recommended for the Hyacinth ; but to produce an effective display 

 three bulbs should be planted in a four or five-inch, and five in a six-inch pot. They should be grown 

 close to the glass, and dui-ing fine days have abundance of air. Those intended for early blooming shoidd 

 hi gentl^v forced as soon as the shoot appears. 



Culture gut of Doors is precisely that of the Hyacinth, planting the bulbs four to six inches 

 apart, and keeping the crown of the bulb three inches under the surface ; during severe weather protect 

 ^\'ith a thin coating of litter or cocoa fibre. 



Time of Pl.\nting for out-door Decoration. — The early part of November, or as soon after as 

 convenient. We have planted the TuUp as late as J anuary, and have had a splendid display.
