Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs. pB^JREEl BULBS "-".mLL PLANTM >HILSimHR% 11 May=Flowerin^ or Cottage Garden Tulips This beautiful class is now very popular. They are quite distinct from tlie tarly flowering, Darwin and other sorts offered on the preceding pages, coming into bloom in the vicinity of Philadelphia about May 10th, or two or three weeks later than the early-flowering types, and extending the Tulip season over a period of four weeks or more. On account of their extreme hardiness, and long lasting qualities, they are specially adapted for the permanent hardy flower bor- der, where they should be liberally planted in clumps or masses. They may also be natural- ized in grass, wild gardens, etc. For bedding they are superb, while as cut flowers, having long stems with flowers of great substance, they stand in perfect con- dition for a long time. In planting the bulbs should be set a little deeper than early tulips, a covering of 4 mches being about right. The heights given after each variety are actual measurements taken at our trial grounds, May 10th to May Uesneriana Lutea. This flne golden-yellow variety is con- sidered oneof the best (24 inches). 60 cts. per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000. Qesneriana Spathulata Major. A superb Tulip of strong yet graceful growth, and bearing very large flowers of an intense brilliant crimson scarlet. No words or picture can begin to do this Tulip justice. It should be planted in gen- erous quantity (28 inches). 60 cts. per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000. Qolden Crown. Large flowers with pointed petals; color rich yellow, petals faintly edged with red; very attractive. (22 inches). 60 cts. per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000. Inglescombe Pink. A rare blending of buff and salmon. Most attractive both in form and coloring (18 inches). 6
