The Renaissance of Old English and Flemish 



^pt^wE^ft^o HARDY GARDEN TULIPS 



^^HESE grand late flowering garden Tulips are on the rising tide of popularity. They do not supplant early Tulips for forcing, 

 L\, nor bedding, but for mixed gardens, herbaceous borders, sunny positions in proximity to shrubbery, etc. — where these late 

 ^^ Tulips need not be disturbed, they will prove a source of great satisfaction, being very hardy, continuing to grow, increase 

 and flower for many years — conditions being at all congenial — many of the varieties having been collected from the cottage gardens 

 of England, Scotland, Ireland, Flanders, etc., where they have been growing in some cases for 50 years. During May they pre- 

 sent a gorgeous appearance, the flowers being very large, of durable substance, beautifully formed and borne on tall stifl stems, render- 

 ing them of exceptional value when cut for vases.
