Early Double Tulips 
Double flowering Tulips are of fairly robust growth and have massive flowers, in many cases 
they are as large as small Peonies, and last somewhat longer than Single Tulips. The Double Tulips 
are not so elegantly formed as Single Tulips, nevertheless they are exceedingly useful and effective 
for bedding purposes. Most of the Double varieties are excellent forcers and make fine displays 
when grown in pots, pans, boxes, etc., they should, however, be forced slowly.
