Tulips 



FRONT COVER COLLECTION 

 No. 1301. One each of tlie beautiful bulbs on the front cover of this 

 catalogue (3 Darwin Tulips, 1 Early Tulip, 1 Hyacinth and 1 Daffodil) 

 sent postpaid for 59c. Purchased separately would cost much more. 



Nothing is more beautiful in form, poise or graceful beauty than Tulips. If you can 

 pick out one characteristic more outstanding than any other it is perhaps color. It 

 therefore follows that in planting tulip beds and gardens, color is of the prime importance 

 and color harmonies and contrasts must be studied before planting. As concrete examples 

 and to help you in planting of your tulip beds we have planned two model plantings, 

 for which we offer bulbs at special prices. We are able to do this because we can select 

 colors required from varieties of which we have plenty. These collections are not com- 

 mon mixtures, but are chosen by us from our best named varieties. The plantings which 

 we present on this page are rectangular, and the bulbs described as being planted in 

 precise blocks. This method should not be used in planting. You should rather use 

 more irregular outlines and oval shaped groups as they are preferred to the rectangu- 

 lar blocks.
