CLIBRANS, IMPORTERS AND GROWERS OF FLOWER BULBS. 
Choice Single Early Tulips — Continued. 
The characters (a), (b), and (c) indicate the proportional earliness of the varieties of Tulips. For bedding purposes (a) and ( b } 
may be used together, but those marked (c) are later. 
Tulips marked (s) arc sweet scented. 
We would impress upon our customers that, to ensure the best results, Tulips grown in pots must have a liberal supply of water as soon as. 
they are in active growth, hut from the time of potting until they commence to push up no water is required. 
All the Early Single Tulips can be used for forcing ; The Due Van Tliol varieties being the earliest for this purpose. 
The directions for the pot culture of Hyacinths on page 6 are applicable to Tulips also.

Mr. John Taylor, The Gardens, Alltyferin, Nantgaredig, writes : — " 1 have great pleasure in informing you that the 
Roman Hyacinths have done remarkably well this year, better if possible than former years. I have grown them in large 
pans, with about three dozen in each pan, and when each bulb throws about four blooms you can imagine what a show 
they make. Please book for my employer the same quantity for next year. The Narcissus Poeticus Ornatus are also 
blooming very well.”
