A Special Selection 



of 



LATE FLOWERING 

 TULIPS 



We strongly recommend this class of Tulips for 

 garden-decoration in beds as well as in groups in the 

 herbaceous border and amongst shrubs. They bloom 

 during the middle of May, a period when flowers, 

 such as Roses and Iris have not yet come in bloom. 



Grown for cut-flowers, they prove very valuable for 

 the decoration of rooms. By forcing in pots they may 

 be had in bloom in February or March. 



The list of varieties we offer below have been care- 

 fully selected and are exquisite sorts.
