garden borders before the Darwin, Breeder and Cottage 
types come into bloom. They make a compact, stocky 
growth 10 to 12 in. high. Groups or scattered plantings here 
and there among perennials are always showy. The Double 
Early Tulips also do well planted in pots or pans for indoor 
winter blooming.

/ How to Grow Tulips 
Outdoors: Tulips, except Botanical (Species), should 
not be planted in soil in which they had been grown 
the last two seasons. Select a new location. Do not use 
fresh manure at planting time; well-rotted manure or 
bone meal may be used. Plant bulbs 5 to 6 in. deep and 
6 to 8 in. apart. 
Indoors: A mixture of % good clean garden soil and 
K leaf mold to which a little bone meal has been added 
gives the best results. A 6-inch pot will hold about 6 
bulbs. Place bulbs about 1 in. apart each way. Cover 
with an inch of soil, and water thoroughly; then put pots 
in a cold-frame or heel-in in the garden for eight to ten 
weeks to force root development. Bring pots indoors, 
first in a cool location and gradually to the average 
living room temperature. Comolete Cultural Directions 
for the growing of Bulbs for Winter and Spring Bloom¬
