Breeder Tulips 



These are the unbroken forms of the old Dutch gar- 

 deners, who discarded them on account of the even color, 

 having no stripes or feathers. Recently they have come 

 in great demand and are the most sought after variety 

 today. In no other strain do we find such wonderful 

 deep tints, ranging between maroon, purple and terra 

 cotta. They produce enormous flowers on tall stems like 

 the Darwins, and bloom about the same time. 7 cts. each; 

 six for 35 cts., postpaid.

Winter-Blooming Gladiolus 



These early-flowering hardy Gladioli cannot be excelled for beauty and 



refinement, smaller than the other variety usually grown. For outdoor 



planting, set out in the late Fall, four to six inches deep, covered with six 



inches of coarse stable manure ; place four or six bulbs in a six or eight inch 



pot and set outdoors, protected from frost until Winter sets in. Then place in a 



cool place for a short time, when they will soon bloom when brought to the lieht 



and warmth. Water sparingly and use a light, sandy soil. 5 cts. each; 50 cts. 



per doz., postpaid.
