BREEDER 
TULIPS 
The Breeder Tulips have the same large flow¬ 
ers on tall stems as the Darwins but have color¬ 
ings not found in any other class—rich and artis¬ 
tic blendings of purple, gold, bronze, maroon and

SINGLE EARLY 
TULIPS 
Because of their brilliancy of coloring coming 
so early in the spring, the early tulips have al¬ 
ways been great favorites for garden display in 
formal beds and in clumps in the border. While 
the stems are not as long as the May flowering 
types, many of the varieties make delightful cut 
flowers. These are the tulips to use for early 
forcing.

plum colored bloom on the outer petals giving an 
effect of unusual richness. Fine substantial 
flower of globular form on a strong stem. (13-in.)

stripe through the center of each delicately crin¬ 
kled petal. (13-in.) 12 for 60c.

orange yellow at the edges of the petals. A lovely 
sweet scented flower of medium size. (16-in.) 12
