Rembrandt Tulips 
These late or May-flowering garden tulips form a new class of stately 
beauty. They are in reality Darwin Tulips which have "broken" into 
permanent variegations — the flowers of various rich colors being striped, 
blotched and marked with different shades and colors. The flowers, 
large, of perfect form and lasting substance are borne on sturdy stems 
about two feet in height. These Rembrandts are very effective planted 
in groups in the herbaceous or shrubbery border and will remain 3 or 
4 years without replanting. The cultural directions given for Darwin 
Tulips apply to these.

Bybloemen Tulips 
Like the Bizarre varieties these tulips were evolved at the time of the 
Tulipomania which swept Holland and neighboring European countries 
early in the seventeenth century. They have been grown and sold quite 
largely in European countries ever since, and to a lesser extent in Amer- 
ica; but are considered by many to be too gay for large plantations. 
Nevertheless, for indoor decoration, in the month of May when they bloom, 
their vivid and contrasting colors are very welcome. For outdoor borders, and 
for planting among the perennials, there is nothing better; as they impart gay 
coloring much wanted at that time. 
The "Rose" Bybloemen tulips are those marked with crimson, rose, pink 
and scarlet on a white ground, and the "Violet" Bybloemen are those marked 
with blue, purple and violet also on a white ground. 
They flower at the same time as the Darwin and Breeder varieties, and the 
culture is the same; but the stems are not so long, averaging not more than 
twenty inches. (See engraving.)

Tulip Clusiana 
The Little Lady Tulip. A beautiful dwarf variety suitable for perennial 
borders and rockeries, should be planted two inches apart each way. Color 
white with cherry stripes. Price, $1.25 per doz.; $9.00 per 100; $85.00 per 
1,000. 
Bizarre Tulips 
One of the oldest races of Tulips, grown extensively in Europe during the 
seventeenth century. It is this class that is credited as being responsible for 
the famous tulip craze in 1635. Bizarre Tulips are all queerly striped and 
variegated; they belong to the May flowering group, and flower on tall stems. 
Choice Mixed Varieties. Yellow ground colors, variegated with crimson, 
purple, white hps Per doz., $1.00; per 100, $7.00 
Parrot or Dragon Tulips 
These belong to the late garden tulips, and have immense attractive flowers 
of singularly picturesque form and brilliant and varied colors. The petals are 
curiously fringed or lacinated on the edges, and the form of the flower, especially 
before it opens, resembles the head and neck of a parrot. Only the strongest 
bulbs of Parrot Tulips can be depended upon to flower. The smaller, younger 
bulbs often throw no flowers — or at best produce weak, sprawling stems. Our 
bulbs are the best Holland produces. (See engraving.) 
Fantasy. (Novelty). This recent product of the Tulip breeder's art originated 
as a sport from Clara Butt, the well known Darwin Tulip. Clara Butt is 
esteemed for its beautiful salmon pink color; and this sport Fantasy has 
inherited the same glorious color, except that the inside of the flower is more 
intense in color; and borne on stiffer stems, the height is 20 inches. 
Each petal besides being elaborated lasciniated is marked very distinctly 
in the center with a streak of apple-green. 
This variety is suitable for growing in pots or "pans of soil in the window, 
attracting great attention wherever exhibited. Price, $1.50 each; $15.00 per 
dozen.
