PARROT TULIPS 



BLUE PARROT (Parrot) 



3 for 60c; $2.00 per Doz. 



Of unsurpassable beauty, bright violet-blue on outside, purple on the 

 interior. Heavily fringed, notched and waved, in the true parrot 

 fashion. Enormous in size and grows to two feet and over in height. 



FANTASY (Parrot) 3 for 40c; $1.50 per Doz. 



The best of all pink Parrot Tulips. A sport of the Darwin Clara Butt, 

 with enormous flowers carried on strong erect stems. Apple-green 

 markings on the outside make this one of the most unique Tulips. 



MARTHA (Lily-Flowered) 



3 for 45c; $1.75 per Doz. 



Bright cerise-colored self. Not a Parrot Tulip, but we include it here 

 because it differs in form from those on preceding pages. The long 

 narrow petals flare outward at the tips, giving it the trumpet-like 

 form of a Lily. Brilliant cerise-red with white base. Height 24 to 26 

 inches. 



SUNDEW (Parrot) 3 for 35c; $1.35 per Doz. 



Vivid clear red with edges of petals fringed and notched. It is not 

 as crinkled as the usual Parrot-type Tulips, the laciniation being con- 

 fined to the outer edges only. Unique and very popular. 



VIOLET QUEEN (Parrot) 



3 for 60c; $2.00 per Doz. 



A light blue break in this novel section. Bluer than Gadelan, with 

 shadings and streaks of violet and purple; the entire flower curved, 

 twisted and notched. New and scarce; limited stock.
