TULIP COLI 
This fine collection is made especially for ycu who 
want beautiful Tulips and do not care to know the 
variety names. It is a handmade mixture, made by us 
from fine named varieties. It contains all the different 
gorgeous Tulip colors from pure white to almost black, 
with many shades of red, pink, yellow, lavender, purple, orange and 
the lovely blends. We include the richly colored Darwins, the lovely 
pastel Cottage, the huge bold Breeders, the strikingly beautiful 
Triumphs, some of the graceful Lily-shaped and some of those mag- 
nificent new Ideals. We do not include any of the Early Single or 
Early Double Tulips. 
The flowers are large, on tall stems and bloom here in late April 
and early May. ihe bulbs are the finest quality, large No. 1 size, 
imported by us in carlots direct from Holland. If you bought these 
very same bulbs by name, they would cost you much more. Custom- 
ers from coast to coast have written us, telling how delighted they 
are with this ccllection. We do not believe there is a finer mixed 
collection in America. 
Tulips are so easy to grow. Plant them in full sun or partial shade 
(the colors are even richer when they get afternoon shade). Set 
chem with pointed end up, 6 inches apart and 8 to 9 inches deep. 
By planting this deep the bulbs last longer and come up year after 
year for several years without digging them up and re-setting. Also 
this deep planting generally stops mole trouble as they seldom dig 
this deep. You can plant shallow rooted plants like Petunias, Alys- 
sum, Asters, etc., to come on and bloom after Tulips are through. 
Plant for beauty outdoors and also plant enough so you can cut 
some for bouquets.
