BARR’S GENERAL BULB OATALOQUE, Autumn, 1913. 
BARR’S EARLY SINGLE TULIPS FOR BEDDING. 
I®" Full descriptions will be found in our General List of Early Sin|le Tulips. 
Culture Outdoors.— Any ordinary garden soil enriched with old stable manure, with a sprinkling 
of quicklime dug in while fresh, suits the Tulip. Planting out of doors should take place from October to 
November, not earlier. On light soils the bulbs should be planted 4 to S inches deep ; on heavy soils 3 to 
4 inches deep. Early Single Tulips should not be planted two years running on the same piece of ground. 
Arrangement of Colours in Bedding.— The following varieties if bedded together produce charming 
effects : Princess Marianne, Ophir d'Or and Wouverman ; Pottebakker White and Chrysolora ; Prince of 
Austria, President Lincoln 3 .ni\ Chrysolora; Rose Grisdelin and Prineess Marianne; Pottebakker Yellow 
and Thomas Moore Improved; Chrysolora and Dusart ; Princess Ida and Rosamundi ; Rosamundi 
and Stanley ; Coulcnr Cardinal makes a grand show bedded by itself, but Snowdrift goes well with it ; 
Keizerskroon makes a fine bed with La Reine as an outside border. Golden Queen is a grand bedder. 
Time of Fiowering.— The order of flowering is indicated by (i), (2), (3), (4), or (5) after the n.amc. 
The difference in time of flowering between each number is not great, so that (1) and (2) may be bedded 
together, also (2) and (3), and so on.
