Tulipa Greigi. 

 The royal Tulip. 



Heretofore this, the king of Tulips, was so very scarce and 

 held at such a high price that only a limited number was im- 

 ported. At last we were able to procure a fine stock of bulbs, 

 which we offer at a reasonable price. This grand novelty is 



as easily grown 

 as any Tulip, 

 being subject to 

 exactly the same 

 conditions; it 

 can therefore be 

 grown with equal 

 successsinpotsor 

 the open ground. 

 As will be seen 

 by our illustra- 

 tion, the broad, 

 handsome foliage 

 is distinctly 

 spotted with dark 

 maroon. The 

 gorgeous flowers 

 are bravely borne 

 I up, as if to better 

 (display their re- 

 j markable color, 

 j which is flame- 

 red, transparent, 

 !waxy and daz- 

 zling. Greigi is 

 undoubtedly the 

 grandest thing in 

 [the Tulip family. 

 20 cts. each. 



JvMpa Greigi. 



Tulipa Gesneriana. 



It is notable as being the most superb of all Tulips and is 

 one of the parents of the Tulip family. The flower stems are 

 two to three feet high, producing exquisite blossoms of large 

 size, which in color are an intense, dazzling, glossy crimson, 

 with centre of deep blue. 4 cts. each ; 3 for 10 cts.; 35 cts. 

 per dozen. 



Tulipa Golden Crown. 

 Yellow Gesneriana. 



This beautiful Tulip is exactly like " Gesneriana," with the 

 exception that the flowers are of a fine yellow color, banded 

 with orange; it forms a superb contrast with the Scarlet 

 Gesneriana. 4 cts. each; 3 for 10 cts.; 35 cts. per dozen. 



Tulipa Verdiflora. 



THE Green Tulip. 



A very beautiful as well as odd Tulip. The flowers are a 

 showy green. Try one or two bulbs ; it will please you. Ex- 

 tremely curious. 5 cts, each ; 6 for 25 cts.; 40 cts. per dozen, 



Byblooms and Bizards* 



We desire to call special attention to the Byblooms, Bizards 

 and Breeders' types of Tulips, of which we offer a fine col- 

 lection. These merit more general recognition from the vast 

 army of flower lovers. Their bloom somewhat resembles 

 that of the Gesneriana, and they wear all the gorgeous livery 

 of their species. They attain a height of from one to two 

 feet, the stems often branching and producing several large 

 blooms. Their flowering period is later than the other sorts, 

 which is a point in their favor.
