Parrot Tulips

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

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

 and brilliant colors, 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.
