MICHELL’S SINGLE EARLY TULIPS 
8 
Single Early Tulips are far more valuable for the garden than is generally accepted, blooming so much earlier than the Darwins 
and at a time when Daffodils are at their best. Excellent effects can be produced if used in the border; they are at their best when little 
else is in bloom. They are the earliest of all Tulips to bloom when forced. 
The asterisk (*) preceding the variety denotes that it is suitable for forcing as well as bedding. The letters A, B and C following 
the variety indicate their relative earliness to bloom, the A’s being the earliest, followed by the B’s and later by the C’s. The figures 
indicate the normal height in inches. 
If Tulip bulbs are wanted by Parcel Post, add 25c. per 100 for postage, to the first and second zones; for other zones, 
please see parcel post table on second cover page.
