peony-like blooms appear about two weeks after the Single Early Tulips and are remarkable for their beauty and lasting qualities. The figures fol- 
lowing the names indicate the average height in inches. Those marked * are the best for forcing.

in studied proportions, and contains a liberal allowance of the showy light colors. 70 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100; $45.00 per, 1000.
