If ordered by mail add 5 els. per dozen ; Jfi cts. per 100. In beauty of form and bril- liancj' of color the Tulip casts all other spi-ing flowers in the shade i , nothing can equal its gorgeous appearance in beds, lines or groups in the spring garden. For the ornamentation of the conservatory and sitting-room during the winter and spring months, the Tulip stands un- rivaled, both as regards its rich and diversifled colors, easy culture and accommodating habits. It will thrive in almost any soil or situation, and under almost any circumstances, so ts claim to universal cultivation is to the Hyacinth, Narcissus and Crocus. For planting in the open ground, October November are the best months; the bulbs should be planted from five to six inches apart, and from three to four inches deep. When grown in pots they should be potted from three to five in a pot, the soil and treatment being the same as for Hyacinths. EARLY SINGLE TULIPS. We pay particular attention to this important class, and the varieties named below include some of the finest in existence. Those marked (f) bloom simultaneously, about twelve days later than the Due van Thol varieties. The figures prefixed indicate the height in inches of each variety. ^ IB93 '* BY ABUE Rarh 7 Artus, scarlet, fine bold flower SO 05 Belle Alliance, brilliant scarlet, fine .... 05 9 Canary Bird, clear, rich yellow, early, fine . 05 9 Chrysolora, pure yellow, large flower, fine 05 7 Cottage Maid, white, bordered with pink, pretty 05 8 Couleur Ponceau, white, broad crimson edge 05 7 Crimson King, crimson 05 t 9 Duchess de Parma, orange-red, yellow edge, large and fine 05 Doz. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%Q 20 30 30 25 30 20 20 ion %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%1 0 50 00 50 25 00 OC 20 1 OC Each Due Van Thol, scarlet |0 05 ' crimson ' rose ' white ' yellow Jagt Va
