Dreer's Famous Old Dutch or Breeder Tulips 



This fine old May-flowering type has been neglected for 



many years, but are again becoming popular; in fact they 



have, for the past two or three years, been given great promi- 

 nence in many of the strictly up-to-date gardens. They are 



very similar to the Darwins in their tall, strong growth, and 



with even larger flowers, and bloom about the same time, but 



have an entirely different range of colors, comprising bronze, 



terracotta, orange brown and other artistic tones that are alto- 

 gether wanting in the Darwin. 



We made a very exhaustive test of a great many kinds last 



spring and the list offered below represents the best and most 



distinct sorts. 



Bronze Queen. Finely formed large flower. Soft buff, suf- 

 fused with bronzy apricot; inside golden bronze. 70 els. 

 per doz.; $5.00 per 100. 



Cardinal Manning or Kingscourt. A curious blending 

 of mauve and rose, which changes to a bronzy-orange at the 

 edge of petals. Very attractive. 70 cts. per doz.; $5.00 

 per 100. 



Dom Pedro. A handsome and distinct tulip of rich coffee- 

 brown shaded maroon; inside mahogany-red. $1.25 per
