Parrot or Dragon Tulips. 
(May Flowering.) 
It would be difficult to imagine anything more brilliant or more dazzlingly beautiful than a bed of these gorgeous flowers. 
They are very effective in mixed borders, shrubberies, &c., but not so well suited to indoor culture. I hey produce large and goigeously 
coloured flowers’ having beautifully feathered and lacinated petals, and are very distinct and different from all other kinds of Tulips. 
Blooming somewhat late, they form a fine succession 
to the early-flowering varieties. For cutting purposes 
they are invaluable, as they retain their beauty and 
freshness for a considerable time when kept in water. 
They should be grown in a rather heavy soil, but they 
cannot always be depended upon to bloom, as some 
years they produce very few flowers. Average height 
about 15 inches.

Mrs. C. Watson, The Homestead, Shrigley, 
near Macclesfield, writes : — " I have pleasure 
in enclosing a photograph of Hyacinths. We 
purchased the bulbs from you early last 
autumn, and they have flowered exceedingly 
well and have been much admired.”
