IT’S EASY TO GROW BULBS 
TULIPS—Plant in late September to December before hard freezing weather. Set 4 to 5 inches deep 
(to the bottom of the bulb), 4 to 5 inches apart, in any location in any good garden soil, but perfect 
drainage is important under all conditions. 
NARCISSI_Very early fall planting an advantage, about 6 inches deep, 3 to 6 inches apart, depending 
upon size of bulb. Delightful for naturalizing. Plant in clumps (at least 6) in perennial border, in fore- 
ground of shrubbery or evergreens. 
A mulch of leaves or peat moss should be applied when the ground begins to freeze, and removed 
in spring after danger of heavy frost is past. 
The letters E, F, G, and H, following the variety, indicate their relative time to blooming, the E’s be- 
ing the earliest to bloom. The figures indicate the normal height in inches.
