Circular Brd of Tulips '‘E*’ and '* F." 
What we say on page G about the Hyacinth as a bedding plant is equally true of the Tulip. Many brilliant color effects are 
possible with 1 ulips that cannot be produced with any other plant. The culture is the same as for the Hyacinth, only, being 
perfectly hardy, they do not require to he covered so heavily through the winter, but merely enough to keep the frost from throw¬ 
ing them out of place. When through flowering, the bulbs may be lifted and dried off. and used another year, or they may be left 
iu the ground. 1 he following Beds are 6 feet in diameter and require 15G bulbs, planted o inches apart each way:
