BODDINGTON'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 liovver about the same 

 time, while Tulips come into bloom at successive periods. The divergence has fretjuently 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 the others show their colors. For brilliant 

 bedding effects, solid masses of color are to be preferred, especially for design t)eddin!i. 



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 top^ of the bulbs. 



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

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