New Hybrid Late Tulip— Dido 



This is the most sensational Tulip of any class that has been intro- 

 duced in many years. It blooms with the Darwins and grows as 

 large as the Giant Breeders, but is really derived from the Cottage 

 or May-flowering class, and to that class it owes its unusually beauti- 

 ful coloring. Opening a lovely shade of rosy amber, it deepens as the 

 flower expands to a glowing orange in the center, shading out to 

 yellow and cerise at the edges. The stems are strong and often 30 

 inches tall: the flowers 4 inches or more in diameter. Very rare. 

 Bulbs SI .00 each, 3 for S2.50.
