DOUBLE TULIPS. 



Double Tulips should be planted one sort in each bed, as grouping different varieties does not produce such a good effect. The large, double 

 pceony-like blooms appear about two weeks after the Single Early Tulips and are remarkable for their beauty and lasting qualities. The figures fol- 

 owing the names indicate the average height in inches. Those marked * are the best for forcing.

BOTANICAL TULIPS and SPECIES 



Charming wild species, mostly native of Asia, these showy Tulips make splendid subjects for naturalizing in the Rock Garden or Herbaceous 

 Border. In such favorable surroundings, when once established, they will increase and flower in the greatest profusion. 



Clusiana. (Lady Tulip.) A dainty dwarf species with small brightly 

 colored blooms. The outer petals are brilliant cherry-red, inner petals 

 creamy-white, base violet-blue. Select a warm, sunny part of the 

 rockery or border and plant the bulbs about seven inches deep. Height, 

 8 in. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100. 



Elchleri. A rare and beautiful Tulip from Turkestan. The flowers are 

 very large and strikingly colored fiery-crimson, and have glossy-black 

 centers shaded orange-gold. Plant in good soil about six to eight inches 

 deep and in groups for the best results. Height, 10 inches. $2.25 per 

 doz.; $18.00 per 100. 



Grelgil. A gorgeous species with dazzling, flaming orange-scarlet flowers, 

 with coal-black center blotch. Plant in a good sunny situation in the 

 rockery or border and place the bulbs about six inches deep. $4.50 per 

 doa.; $35.00 per 100. 



Florentina Odorata. (Wild English Tulip.) One of the earliest of all 

 flowering bulbs producing exquisite, sweetly-scented flowers on long 

 graceful stems. The blooms have a dainty drooping habit and are clear, 

 buttercup-yellow in color. Planted in a sheltered part of the garden, 

 this charming class will flourish for years. The delicately drooping 

 flowers with their delicious fragrance make splendid cut-flowers. Plant 

 about six inches deep. Height, 18 in. $2.00 per doz.; $16.00 per 100. 



Kauf manniana. A desirable dwarf variety with immense flowers creamy- 

 white in color, tinged rosy-red; centre marked canary-yellow. The 

 best situation for this Tulip is a semi-shady spot, preferably in the shelter 

 of large rocks in the rockery, or under shrubs or trees in the border, 

 where it should be massed for the most pleasing effect. Plant about six 

 inches deep. Height, 6 in. $3.50 per doz.; $25.00 per 100.
