Single Early Tulips 
For a gorgeous display in formal beds or garden borders Single 
Early Tulips are indispensable. They will bloom, depending on 
the season, in April and early May, preceding the taller stemmed 
Triumph, Darwin, Breeder and Cottage types, and thereby length- 
ening the flowering season. Flowers are large and come in a wide 
range of beautiful colors. Plants grow 10 to 15 in. high. 
9145 Mixed Colors A splendid mixture blended so as to in- 
sure a wide assortment of colors and shades for garden decoration 
or cutting. 3 for 30¢; 12 for 95¢; 100 for $7.00. 
Giant Criumph (ulips 
A rather new group of Tulips with large, well-formed, Darwin- 
like flowers on tall, strong stems. They come into bloom between 
the Single Earlies and the Darwins, thereby providing a continu- 
ous display of Tulips in the garden. Filling this gap between the 
earlies and the lates is of considerable value and, in addition, 
colors and color combinations are seen in Triumph Tulips that 
are not seen in. other classes. While Triumph Tulips may be 
forced, we do not recommend them for house culture. Often re- 
ferred to as ‘‘Early Darwins.”’

How to Grow Tulips 
Tulips should not be planted in soil in which 
they had been grown the last two seasons. 
Select a new location. The soil should be 
well drained and the position a sunny one. 
Do not use fresh manure at planting time; 
well-rotted manure or bone meal may be 
worked into the soil. Plant bulbs 5 to 6 in. 
deep and 6 to 8 in. apart. Complete cul- 
tural directions are printed on every package 
of bulbs.
