Abstract
Two thousand bulbs each of tulips (7 varieties) and daffodils (5 varieties) were imported from Holland planted at Peshawar in December, 1976. The objective was to study their performance of sprouting, growth and multiplication. All varieties sprouted and flowered and flowered well but susceptibility to damage by nematodes varied. The quality and durability of blooms was good in all varieties except one variety of daffodils. Varieties resistant to nematode attack differed in their multiplication rates.
