 quite so tall and blooming somewhat later than 

 the Single Early Tulips. Blooms are full, dou- 

 ble and last for a long time. Effective for bed- 

 ding and pot culture. Letters following va- 

 riety names denote comparative earliness and

Various Art Tulips 



The Art Tulips are like buried treasure only waiting to 

 be discovered to yield you a wealth of beauty. Words fail 

 to describe their varied and distinctive colorings; some are 

 almost self colors in undescribable shades, others striped, 

 blotched and feathered with all the colors of the rainbow. 

 To be appreciated they must be seen. All have the same 

 flowering season as the Darwins and are almost as tall, 

 so that they may be treated in the same manner.
