Parrot Tulips 



For the Open Ground 



Sometimes called Dragon Tulips. These very odd and showy tulips of very large size have curiously 

 cut and fringed petals. They are perfectly hardy and the thick petaled flbwers on long stems in 

 variegated colors make a very striking and lasting display entirely distinct from the other May-flower- 

 ing tulips.

Breeder Tulips 



For the Open Ground 



The Breeders are a most attractive class for the many tulip fanciers who are interested in the revival 

 of the taste for "art colors," especially the soft blendings of bronze and purple. They are late flower- 

 ing tulips cultivated like the Darwins. They have been called "self colored" as distinguished from the 

 Bizards and Byblooms, which are striped or feathered, and this accounts perhaps for Breeders having 

 been so long neglected by their originators, the old Dutch gardeners. Although usually not adapted 

 for forcing, the improved varieties are of excellent size and are well suited for open air culture and 

 garden decoration. 



Apricot. Deep bronze-buff, shaded rudd}^ apricot, and showing an olive base. 15c. each: I1.50 per 

 doz.; ^10.00 per 100.

 largest. 20c. each; |2.oo per doz.; ^14. 00 per 100.
