SWEET SCENTED JONQUIL. 
The double and single Jonquils are prized for their graceful sweet scented flowers. For indoor decora- 
tion, three or more should be grown in a 5-inch pot, and treated as recommended for the cultivation of the

THE TULIP. 
The Tulip is the most effective of Spring flowers ; its colours are rich, diversified and beautiful. It 
is extremely hardy, and of the easiest possible culture, succeeding in any ordinary soil, and flowering with the 
same freedom in the shade as in the sunshine, and as much at home in a confined town garden as in more 
favoured situations. Rows of mixed Tulips, double and single, in front of shrubs, maintain a display for a long 
period, and in this respect, for such positions, they are unexcelled. Arranged in beds of distinct colours, or the 
colours intermingled, the Early Single Tulip is always an object of admiration. In gardens of limited extent, 
where the flower beds must be gay from the first opening of Spring, Scilla sibirica, Chionodoxa luciliae 
(The Glory of the Snow), Snowdrops, or Crocus should be planted between the lines of Tulips, to maintain a 
floral display till the Summer bedding plants are ready to put out. 
IggJ” From our Collection of Tulips we have omitted several which are superseded, and have replaced 
them by others of greater merit, this being the result of the extensive trials continually going on at our 
Experimental Grounds. 
EARLY SINGLE TULIPS. 
No other section of the Tulip displays so great a variety of delicate, striking, and attractive colours as 
these. Of seifs there are beautiful scarlets, crimsons, whites, and yellows. Of parti-colours, there are snow- 
white grounds, striped and feathered with purple, violet, crimson, rose, puce, and cerise ; and yellow grounds, 
with crimson, scarlet, and red flakes and feathers ; so that only those who have cultivated the varieties of Early 
Single Tulips systematically can form any just idea of their beauty and diversity, when massed in beds or groups 
in the flower borders, or grown three in a pot for indoor decoration. 
The First Prize for Tulips was awarded to us by the Royal Botanic Society, at their Exhibition of March, 1877.
