REPORT OF THE TULIP NOMENCLATURE COMMITTEE. 



The illustrations are very helpful for the better understanding of the 

 text. For the information of those not conversant with the tulip's 

 ways, it should be stated that the bulb which is planted in autumn 

 does not live to be taken up the following year, but that what is lifted 

 is an entirely new one. This development and growth occupy the pages 

 of "Das Leben der Tulpe." 



1910. MIGUEL ZAMACOIS. La Fleur Merveilleuse. Paris. 



A play, the action of which takes place in the years 1635-36. 

 There are references to some of the more famous tulips of the 

 period, and also to the inns which played to a large extent the role of 

 exchanges. La Fleur Merveilleuse is the tulip. I am unable to say if 

 there is any foundation in fact for a large prize being offered at Haarlem 

 for a special variety as is here as well as in " La Tulipe Noire "of 

 Dumas postulated. 



1911. JOHN WEATHERS. * The Bulb Book. London. 



Lists of tulips, with selections of the best varieties. The sections 

 into which they are divided are : (i) Early and Bedding, (2) Darwin 

 Tulips, (3) Florists' or English, (4) Parrot or Dragon, (5) Natural 

 species. 



1912; JOSEPH JACOB. * Tulips. London and Edinburgh. 



One of the " Present-Day Gardening " series. A monograph on 

 the tulip dealing with its history, cultivation, and garden and show 

 classification. A list of the best varieties in the different sections is 

 given. There are eight very beautiful coloured plates. 



1913. E. TH. WITTE. Tulpen hare geschiedenis beschrijving en 



behandeling een boek voor Liefhebbers die zelf kweeken 



willen naar Joseph Jacob. Amsterdam. 



This is a Dutch translation of Joseph Jacob's " Tulips." A few items 

 of purely English interest have been omitted and certain parts have 

 been expanded, e.g. the history of the tulip mania, Some additional 

 black-and-white illustrations are included.

Tulpenbliiten. Leipsic.
