TULIPS 
In beauty of form and brilliancy of color the 
Tulip casts all other Spring flowers in the 
shade; nothing can equal its gorgeous appear¬ 
ance in beds, lines or groups in the Spring 
garden. For the ornamentation of the con¬ 
servatory and sitting-room during the Winter 
and Spring months, the Tulip stands unrival¬ 
ed, both as regards its rich and diversified 
colors, easy culture and accommodating 
habits. It will thrive in almost any soil or 
situation, and under almost any circum¬ 
stances. For planting in the open ground, 
October and November are the best months; 
the bulbs should be planted from five to six 
inches apart, and from three to four inches 
deep. When grown in pots, they should be 
potted from three to five, according to size, 
in a 5-inch pot, the soil and treatment being 
the same as for Hyacinths. 
EARLY SINGLE TULIPS

bloom simultaneously, about twelve days later than the Due Van Tliol varieties.
