TENDER BULBS AND TUBERS. 
1 he Tender or Summer Bulbs, in all places subject to winter frosts, must be planted in the 
spring. In August or September they are in perfection. Before hard frost the Bulbs must be 
taken up and stored away in some place secure from frost until spring. We need say nothing 
more of the great beauty of this class of Bulbs than merely to mention the fact that the Gladiolus , 
the Dahlia and the Tuberose are its leading members. When Seeds and Bulbs are ordered 
together, the Seeds will be sent at once, and the Bulbs as soon as possible without danger of 
injury from frost. The figures show the price of each bulb.
