PARROT TULIPS (May-Flowering) 



Six of a kind at dozen rate, 25 of a kind at 100 rate 



For outdoor cultivation. The petals of these have feathered edges, and, in addition to other colors, com- 

 bine shades of green — a peculiarity confined to this class. The flowers are very singular and picturesque, of large 

 size and brilliant color, and form very effective groups for the flower-border. To get the best results they must 

 have the full effect of the sun. Very late flowering. 



If ordered by mail, add 6 cts. per dozen or 35 cts. per 100 for postage
