DOUBLE EARLY TULIPS 
I’hese tulips have very large, fully double, peony-like flow¬ 
ers that make them very effective for mass planting. For 
beds or in gi'oups among perennials or shrubs they provide a 
lavish display of color in the early spring. The flowers are 
very long lasting. The Itouble Earlies are much used for 
forcing but should not be brought in too early.
