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 lo- 
cation In a sunny position. Do not use fresh manure at 
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 3 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. 3
