SPRING-FLOWERING BULBS 



Especially Beautiful Varieties of Bulbs 

 Which Ought to be Better Known 



The varieties chosen for especial notice on this page are not 

 novelties, but rather some little- known kinds which I believe 

 ought to be in every garden. I know them all, and know that all 

 of them will give pleasure. 



L'UNIQUE. Truly unique in color and form, and combining 

 beautifully with violet and purple shades. Page 28. 



STANLEY. An invaluable Tulip for the spring garden, because 

 of its brilliant deep rose tone. Page 31. 



GOLDEN HORN. A flower of rare beauty, especially in com- 

 bination with Rosa Mundi. Page 34. 



FULGENS LUTEA PALLIDA. A most graceful Cottage Tulip 

 of soft color, which can well be used instead of Retroflexa.

PRIDE OF INGLESCOMBE. A most beautiful variety to 

 plant with the lighter rose Tulips in the Cottage class. 

 Page 44. 



PRINCESS ELIZABETH. One of the best of its color, and a 

 Darwin that never fails to do well in the garden. Page 56. 



VALENTIN. An early Darwin ideally suited for planting with 

 Cottage Tulip Moonlight. Page 58. 



CHARLES DICKENS. A splendid example of the red Breeders, 

 a red that is not red if it is used with the rose tones. Page 63. 



LUCIFER. An orange Breeder of wonderful color, the latest and 

 largest of all, and superb in vases. Page 66. 



SPRING GLORY. In my opinion this is the finest yellow-and- 

 white Trumpet DafiFodil. A huge flower, yet perfect in form.

WHITE LADY. A most dainty white Narcissus which grows 

 well anywhere, and which can now be ofi'ered at a very reason- 

 able price. Page 95.
