How to Grow TULIPS 
Outdoors: Tulips should not be planted in soil in which 
they had been grown the last two seasons. Select a new 
location in a sunny position. Do not use fresh manure a_ 
planting time; well-rotted manure or bone meal may be 
worked into the soil which should be well drained. Plant 
bulbs 5 to 6 in. deep and 6 to 8 in. apart. 
Indoors: A mixture of 24 good clean garden soil and \% leaf 
mold to which a little bone meal has been added will give 
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 coldframe or 
heel-in in the garden for 8 to 10 weeks to force root de- 
velopment. Bring pots indoors, first in a cool location and 
gradually to the average living room temperature. ; 
Complete cultural directions for the growing of bulbs for 
winter and spring blooming are given on every package.
