EARLY DOUBLE TULIPS. 
Double Tulips have massive, brilliant, diversified, and beautiful coloured flowers, 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. 
The * indicates the best sorts for pot culture. For sectional lines, when the Early Single Tulip is planted in 
designs, the Toumesol, No. 654 , 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 Toumesol Yellow the best of 
the yellows. For indoor decoration, the Tulip, Double and Single, should have 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.
