ULIPS, EARLY DOUBLE, AND SINGLE MAY-FLOWERING SPECIES. 
DOUBLE TULIPS, Bulbs of Finest Quality Only. 
Double Tulips have massive flowers of brilliant and beautifully diversified colours, and are very effective 
in beds on lawns, terraces, etc., also as edgings to Rose beds and shrubberies. Planted in groups of three or 
more in flower and shrubbery borders, they are very attractive. 
For sectional lines, where the Early Single Tulip is planted in designs, the Tournesol, No. 654 , being also 
early, is most valuable ; it is excellent to force for early-flowering, and is grown extensively for Covent Garden 
Market. Imperator Rubroram the best scarlet, TourneBOl Yellow the best yellow for indoor decoration. These 
Double Tulips should be planted three bulbs in a pot, and receive the same cultural treatment as the Hyacinth. 
In beds or large masses, Rex Rubrorum, scarlet , associated with La Candeur, white, produces an unrivalled 
effect in the Spring flower garden. Plant the bulbs six inches apart.
