Varieties of Bouton d'Or a round, clear yellow flower shown up by 



May Tulips black stamens, but not very large. 



Golden Eagle slightly fragrant, with pointed petals. 

 Golden Crown pointed in form, opens yellow petals 

 then take a red edge, gradually becoming suffused 

 with a brown-orange. 



We have a long border of these Tulips with clumps of yellow 

 Wallflowers between and purple Pansies below ; only a light 

 railing divides it from a field, and when that is full of Butter- 

 cups the effect is most beautiful. Other good varieties are : 

 Parisian Yellow. 

 Retroflexa with curved back petals looking more 



like a Lily than a Tulip. 



Yellow Rose double and very full rich colour. 

 Magnificent if only its stalk were firmer ; but 

 it needs a carpet of some low-growing plant to 

 lay its head on. 

 Flava. 



Vltellina pale lemon. 

 Gesnertana lutea. 

 Mrs Moon. 



These last four are comparatively expensive. 

 For pinks grow 



Shandon Bells (syn. Isabella) Lemon yellow 

 splashed with rose colour, getting rosier with 

 age ; it is quite lovely but shorter and stiffer in 

 growth than many of the others. 



Picotee palest lemon with pointed petals, turned back 

 tips and a scarlet edge which gradually suffuses 

 the whole flower.
