VARIOUS AND FANCY TULIPS.

THE EOYAL TPLIP. 



Heretofore this, the king of Tulips, was so very scarce and 

 held at such a high price that only a limited number was im- 

 ported. At last we were able to procure a fine stock of bulbs, 

 which we offer at a reasonable price. This grand novelty is 

 as easily grown as any Tulip, being subject to exactly the 

 same conditions ; it can therefore be grown with equal suc- 

 cess in pots or the open ground. As will be seen by our 

 illustration, the broad, handsome foliage is distinctly spotted 

 with dark maroon. The gorgeous flowers are bravely borne 

 up, as if to better display their remarkable color, which is 

 flame-red, transparent, waxy and dazzling. Greigi is un- 

 doubtedly the grandest thing in the Tulip family. 35 cts. each. 



TVl'li OF PARKOIT TULU'S. 



F^BBOTT TULIPa 



Parrott Tulips are the most distinctly shaped and marked 

 of any; the flowers are larger than those of other varieties, 

 and the striking and beautiful colors range through all shades 

 of golden yellov/, green, crimson-striped, deep crimson, clear 

 yellow, etc. Some bulbs should be included in each order.

QlSMllIANA. 



This grand species of 

 Tulip should be in every 

 collection ; it is notable 

 as being one of the 

 parents of the Tulip 

 family. The flower 

 stems are two to three 

 feet high, producing ex- 

 cjuisite blossoms of the 

 most intense, dazzling 

 glossy crimson, with 

 centre of deep blue; the 

 flowers are most dur- 

 able, and the beautiful 

 colors remain clear and 

 distinct a long time. 6 

 cts. each ; 3 for 15 cts.
