How To Grow Gorgeous Long-Stemmed Tulips 
Select only the fargest size firm bulbs. Buy your bulbs early, and store in the refrigerator until November, 
or for 30 days. From mid-November through December is the best time for planting Tulips. Plant in sun or 
half-shade. Spade up soit to a depth of 12 inches and fertilize with bone meal, never manure. Plant bulbs 
at least 6 inches deep; in light soil, plant 8 inches deep. Cover with a mulch of peat moss, leaf mold or 
manure, and give bed a thorough, deep| soaking right after bulbs are planted. Water lightly, to keep surface 
from drying out, until tulip leaves appear—then 
keep bed constantly moist, soaking it oftener and more 
thoroughly than most other flowers. Water must soak down at least six or eight inches to reach bulbs. 
Tulips require plenty of water to produce long stemmed blooms.
