5l?e <5l?oieest Sii^le Early Sulips. Whether grown indoors or planted in open ground, Tulips are magnificent in their dazzling beauty. When arranged in masses in the garden or on the lawn, their wealth of brilliant color makes them an object of striking beauty, and in this one respect they perhaps even surpass Hyacinths. Their bright flowers lend an air of cheerfulness to their surroundings, and, being so inexpensive, one's collection of bulbs is incomplete without them. The bulbs are entirely hardy, and may be utilized either for house or outdoor culture with entire certainty as to results of the most gratifying nature. The same method of culture in detail prescribed for the Hyacinth will suffice for the Tulip. After the blooming period has elapsed, and when the bulbs have sufficiently ripened, as indicated by the yellowish appear- ance of the stem, they may be taken up, cleaned, dried off, placed in paper bags and stored in a cool, dry place, and replanted again in the Fall. The single early sorts are the best for pot culture for the house or conservatory. In the selection of the different sorts herein offered we have studied to please, and feel that they are absolutely the best, both as regards quality and variety. Each. Three. Per Doz.
