PARROT, or DRAGON TULIPS, with Laciniated Petals 
(May-flowering). 
These Parrot, or Dragon Tulips, have large characteristic blossoms with curiously laciniated 
petals, and richly varied shades of beautiful colours in the same flower. They are very remarkable and 
exceedingly showy and effective in flower borders, while if grown in h.anging baskets the drooping flowers 
look like orchids. In height they average about 15 inches, and bloom with the Cottageand Darwin Tulips. 
The following art all selected extra strong bulbs, superior to what are often sold, and may reasonably 
be expected to bloom ; but as in some seasons the Parrot Tulips are rathe r shy in flowering, to ensure a good 
display in flower beds and b orders it is wise to plant the bulbs only 4 inches apart. 
12 bulbs each of 6 beautiful varieties, 7 s. ; 6 each, 3 s. 9 d.

Crimson Beauty, rich deep blood-crimson, with blackish markings, flowers of immense
