One of the most important groups of Tulips because they bloom 
so early in the season—two weeks before the Darwins, Cottage and 
Breeders — when bright, gay colors are needed to sweep away 
thoughts of the last melting snowdrift and herald approaching 
Spring. 
Gay, sparkling Early Tulips have been used for genera- 
tions to bring color into the garden early in the spring; and 
to lengthen the entire Tulip season. In most northern lo- 
calities they start to bloom the third week of April and con- 
tinue in full glory until the earliest Darwin, Cottage and 
Breeder Tulips begin to open. By planting these early April- 
flowering varieties in separate groups between groups of the 
later May-flowering varteties, you will be able to enjoy more 
than a month of continuous Tulip display.

Single Early, and Double Early Tulips are not as 
tall as the Darwins and others, so they are particularly 
resistant to early spring winds and storms. And they are 
the only hybrids suitable for planting in any exposed 
windy place. The flowers are large and well-formed; 
with good substance; the stems are strong and stiff; and 
the colors are very gay, sparkling and refreshing.

Use them extensively in any location where they will 
receive plenty of sunshine. They are equally showy in 
informal groups and clusters scattéred throughout the 
garden, or in formal mass displays.
