DOUBLE TULIPS. 
Double Tulips have massive flowers of brilliant, diversified, and beautiful colours, and are suitable for 
beds on the lawn, terrace, etc., also as edgings to Rose beds and shrubberies. Planted in groups of thiee or 
more in flower and shrubbery borders, they are very effective. 
For sectional lines, where the Single Tulip is planted in designs, the Tournesol, No. 488, is most valuable ; 
it is also the best to force for early-flowering, and is extensively grown for Covent Garden Market. Imperator 
Rubrorum is the best scarlet, and Tournesol Yellow the best of the yellows. For indoor decoration, the Double 
Tulip should be planted three bulbs in a pot, and receive the same cultural treatment as the Hyacinth. For 
beds or masses, Rex Rubrorum, scarlet, is the best to associate with La Candeur, white , and, so arranged, the 
effect is unrivalled amongst Spring flowers. Plant the bulbs six inches apart.
