Rule of Thumb for Planting Bulbs

When in doubt as to how deep to plant bulbs, use the old ‘“Rule-of-Thumb” and plant them “three times their thickness.” Thus a bulb that measures an inch from top to bottom should be covered with 3 inches of soil.

La TERR A Peet Oe eS LULIPS

Our bulbs are grown by one of the very best producers in Holland, and every year we receive many compliments on the quality of our bulbs.

In addition to First Size (11/12 cm.) bulbs for outdoor use, we offer Top Size (12 cm. and larger) for indoor forcing of certain varieties. Orders for the larger bulbs must be placed in advance of shipping time, say before August 1st, as we will not carry a surplus stock of them for late orders. Where an asterisk (*) appears before the name, the variety is suitable for forcing.

Tulips should be planted outdoors 5 to 6 inches deep, and about 5 inches apart. Avoid areas where Tulips have been grown during the previous two years, and do not use fresh manure.

Indoors, bulbs may be transferred to pots after two or three months in outdoor beds, when well rooted. Keep in a cool room before bringing them into ordinary house temperature.

SINGLE EARLY

These bloom about a week before the regular varieties and last until the others are in bloom. The flowers are bright colored, on stems up to 15 inches tall, which means that they are a little shorter than the so-called late Tulips.

DOUBLE EARLY

These are regaining their former popularity, as the flowers, which are double and somewhat resemble Peonies, are most attractive. They bloom just ahead of the Darwins, Triumphs, etc., on stems about a foot tall and will make an interesting addition to any rock garden, besides looking equally fine in beds.

DOUBLE LATE

These resemble Double Earlies, except that they bloom with the later Tulips and have long stems. No planting is complete without some Doubles.

PARROTS

These are sometimes called Orchid Tulips. They have bril- liantly colored, irregularly shaped flowers which are fringed, deeply cut, and frequently splotched with green. These newer varieties have good stems. Fantasy has been a popular Parrot for years.

DARWINS

Darwin Tulips gained great popularity when they were first introduced, because of their tall strong stems, attractive colors and perfectly shaped blossoms. They follow the Single Earlies in blooming time and, in common with other Tulips, are at their best when massed in beds. They average 20-30 inches tall, depending on climate, weather and locality.

COTTAGE

Also called May-Flowering, these are a trifle later than Darwins and have sturdy, tall stems. The color range is narrow, as they are mostly whites and yellows.

TRIUMPH

Triumph Tulips resulted from crossing Single Earlies with Darwins, and they deserve even greater popularity than they have received. They are medium tall, with very strong stems and attractive colors and combinations of colors. Excellent for forcing.

BREEDER

These bloom a trifle later than Darwins, also have tall stems, but they come in a totally different range of colors which includes buffs, bronzes, purple-bronze, gold, terra cotta, etc., frequently blended. The “Indian” group we list are new types of Breeders which should appeal to the more advanced and particular lover of Tulips.

INDIAN

As mentioned above, these are actually Breeders, but are considered sufficiently distinctive to warrant special mention. Those of your customers who really like tulips will welcome these new colors.

(See “Botanical Tulips” on page 7.)

DAFFODILS

For outdoor use, plant the bulbs as early as possible in the Fall, 6 to 7 inches deep and 6 to 9 inches apart. In- doors, treat them the same as Tulips, but barely cover the bulbs with soil, and water copiously.

We offer two sizes of bulbs, Double Nose II (DN II) for outdoor use, and the larger Double Nose I (DN 1) for forcing. The larger bulbs will be supplied only on early orders, as we will not carry a surplus stock of them. Where an asterisk (*) appears before the name, the variety is suitable for forcing.

These are commonly called Daffodils, but botanically they are Narcissi, and include a number of types or classes as described briefly below. They bloom early and. long, making them ideal for beds, borders or naturalizing. The part which grows from the center of the flower is called a trumpet when it is long, a crown or cup when medium size, and an eye when very small.

TRUMPET. This type of Nar- cissi has trumpets which are as long as or longer than the perianth petals. The stems are strong and more than a foot tall. Trumpet Nar- cissi may be yellow, white or bi-color.

INCOMPARABILIS. In this class, the trumpet or crown is medium in length, one-third to the full length of the perianth. The range of colors in- cludes yellow and orange crowns, yellow and white perianths.

BARRII. Another class with me- dium length cup which is less than one-third the length of the perianth.

Included in this group are some of the deepest red cupped varieties.

in clusters on tall, strong stems. They are pleasantly scented and have a small cup or eye. Cheerfulness is a double-flowered Poetaz of out- standing beauty.

DOUBLE. Double flowered Narcissi or Daffodils have showy flowers, some with all yellow petals and some of two colors.

POETICUS. Called the Poet’s Daffodil, this group has white perianths and a small, flattened crown or eye that may be lemon or yellow edged with crimson or scarlet. Poeticus do well in par- tial shade and make fine cut flowers.

JONQUILLA. We list but one, Trevithian, a Jonquil hybrid with small, delicately scented short-crowned flowers, lemon-yellow throughout. Two or more blooms appear on a stem.

TRIANDRUS. Thalia is a Triandrus hybrid, with white blossoms in clusters of two or three. It is fine for rock gardens or naturalizing.

Ye (¢2. 9.92 Ar. 7S HYAGINERS

We offer high quality bulbs in an excellent range of colors, and in two. sizes Exhibition or First Size (18-19 cm.) and Bedding Size (15-16 cm.).

The smaller bulbs are better for outdoor use, as the spikes are then not too heavy and are less apt to bend or break.

For outdoor bedding, plant the bulbs 7 inches deep and 6 inches apart. In northern United States and Canada they should have some pro- tection in Winter.

Lf 989 7 44 CROGUSES

v

Ctocuses are usually planted in borders, or in random patches about the lawn, 4 inches deep, where they bloom very early and are unharmed by later mowings.

Indoors they may be grown in light soil. Water them well and keep them in a dark place about six weeks or until the top growth has become 2 inches tall.

y ¥ 4 ¥ ¥ BOTANICAL TULIPS

(Tulipa Species)

All so-called Botanical Tulips (Tulipa species) ate natives of Asia Minor and central Asia. All of them bloom early, have bright colors and recurved petals. They tolerate shade better than Tulips and are especially attractive in rock gar- dens and hardy borders. Red Emperor is especially recom- mended.

Kees eae ef tty hy, > SCILLA

CAMPANULATA. About 15 inches high, erect flower spikes with small bell-shaped blossoms which appear in early May. Set the bulbs 6 inches apart and 3-4 inches deep, in sun or shade.

SIBIRICA. Plant the bulbs 3 or 4 inches deep, 3 inches apart. Bright blue flowers on slender stems.

WM 7 <7, +. WIUSCARI

Called Grape MHyacinths be- cause (except Plumosum) the upright spikes of blue berry-like flowers resemble miniature in- verted bunches of grapes. They thrive almost anywhere. Plant the bulbs 2 or 3 inches deep and 3-4 inches apart.

WOODRUFF'S GOLD SEAL

HIGHEST QUALITY }

Lawn Seed Mixtures

TURF-MAKER 1

Composed of Bluegrass, Bent and Redtop all seeds highly refined to produce one of the highest quality lawn seed mixtures available.

Turf-Maker 1 will develop a beautiful, durable turf of fine leafed even-textured grass.

TURF-MAKER 38

This is another top-quality mixture similar to Turf- Maker 1 —, with Red Fescue added.

It is particularly suited for New England conditions or where soils are somewhat thin and sandy. This suit- ability is due to the heavy and penetrating root structure of Red Fescue which enables it to survive with a minimum of moisttife.

TRU-SHADE

Wherever shade makes difficult growing conditions, Tru-Shade is the mixture which we recommend as best suited to overcome this problem. It is composed entirely of shade tolerant grasses with Redtop as a nurse. These are Creeping Red Fescue, Chewings Fescue, and Rough Bluegrass.
