8 BECKERT SEED AND BULB CO. 



Majestic Breeder Tulips, May-flowering 



Distinguished by somber, dignified colors, rich purples, buffs, and 

 bronzes, and including the tallest and largest varieties in cultivation, 

 these are the aristocrats of the whole Tulip race. They bloom in May 

 and are often mingled with Darwin Tulips in border plantings where the 

 bright tones of the latter contrast with the deeper, quieter tones of 

 Breeders, increasing the effectiveness of both. Letters and figures follow- 

 ing the varieties explained under Tulips, page 6.

Stately Cottage Tulips, May-flowering 



These are the Tulips of old English gardens. They bloom in May 

 and are often planted with the Darwins. The stems are tall and slender; 

 the flowers are elegant in form, many with recurved petals. All colors 

 from the most delicate pastels to the most brilliant reds are represented. 

 Unsurpassed for cutting and lovely when naturalized in the border. 

 Not recommended for forcing. Treatment the same as Darwin Tulips. 

 Letters and figures following varieties explained under Tulips, page 6.
