TULIPS. If by mail, add 5c per dozen, or 40c per 100 to price; single bulbs mailed free at prices given. 3 sold at dozen rates; 25 at 100 rates. For making a handsome display in the garden in the early spring, before we even dare plant our summer flowering plants, there is nothing so effective, nor none so reliable as the Tulip. It may also be successfully grown in pots for the house or greenhouse, and when so grown is treated about the same as the Hyacinth. Noth- ing can be more handsome than a good-sized pot with several bulbs of various varieties of these in it, and in full bloom. Garden Culture. — Any good soil, well en- riched, will suit these bulbs. October, or early in November, is the proper time to plant them. Set them four or five inches apart, and about three Inches deep. Protect them during the 6evere months of winter with a covering of straw or manure. The after culture is the same as recommended for the Hyacinth. The earliest blooming varieties are marked,?, next b. and so on in their order. The number before the names denotes the height of their growth in inches. FOR 35c For 35 cents we will mail 3 each of the splendid Tulips illustrated on cover. No. 1, Yellow Prince; No. 2.
