POPULAR CHRISTMAS TULIPS 
The undermentioned varieties of Tulips possess the quality of flowering at Christmas. The cultivation is very simple. 
Plant three of them in a pot or any number required in baskets or boxes, with the top of the bulbs somewhat above 
the surface of the soil and leave them in the dark until they have developed a bud of about 2 inches. Then bring 
them in the room or conservatory, but do not place them in the warmth before the end of November. The earlier 
they are planted the more you can be sure that they will flower in time; if they are planted late, they will certainly 
flower, but not at Christmas. Furthermore it is essential that they are planted in soil which has never been used 
before for Tulips.

The subjoined five photographs show the development of these Christmas Narcissi which is both studious and 
interesting and the cultivation is very simple. A bowl or Jardiniere should be taken and filled about two inches 
with gravel and upon this the Narcissi must be placed. It is then advisable to fill the spaces between the bulbs 
with gravel to prevent the bulbs from falling over. Sufficient water should then be poured into the bowl, but this 
should not touch the bottom of the bulb. From time to time this can be repeated. Place the bulbs with as little 
space as possible to obtain the best effect. The later they are planted the quicker they will come into flower: 
planted in November they should be in full flower by Christmas. We recommend therefore, that part of the quantity 
obtained should be kept in dry condition in order that they may be planted at intervals of about a fortnight. This 
will enable you to have for some months, sweetly scented flowers indoors. Of all bulbs for indoor cultivation these 
Narcissi are the easiest to bring into flower. In the middle of the winter they display their beauty and everyone 
admires them. 
Paperwhite Grandiflora, large clusters of pure white well-fofmed flowers appear on 
each stem. Enormously popular variety, scented .$ 
Grand Soleil d'Or, the brilliant golden yellow forms a vivid contrast with the orange 
corolla. Large flowered novelty .$

Very attractive Christmas Snowdrops 
Unsophisticated as they are, they always remain very attractive for every lover of flowers. In the garden they flower 
very early in the Spring, the better bulbs, however, flower at Christmas. Immediately upon receipt they must be 
planted and placed in the dark until they have developed sufficiently. Once in the light, they prefer an unheated 
room at first, but they may be placed in a heated room when 
flowering time approaches. Per 12 $ — .40, per 100 $ 2.30
