TULIPS FOR FORCING. 
For our customers’ guidance when 
making a selection of Tulips, we have 
numbered each variety in their order of 
flowering (No. i blooming first), so that 
by a careful selection a nice succession 
of blooms may be obtained, or, on the 
other hand, a grand display may be 
ensured by choosing only those varieties 
with the same number. For beautiful 
colour effects we refer our readers to 
page 62 for our Royal Parks Selection 
of Single varieties, and to page 63 for 
the Royal Parks Double varieties. 
These are selected for simultaneous 
flowering in each section, the Doubles 
being a week or so later than the Singles.
