BOTANICAL TULIPS 
(Wild Species' 
These wild varieties of tulips are extremely beautiful 
and will greatly enhance the charm of the rock garden, 
which is often lacking in colorful flowers. Plant them in 
masses, clumps, in deep-soiled pockets in the shaded 
or partly shaded parts of the rockery. 
Tulipa clusiana. The “Lady Tulip” or “Candy-stick Tulip”. 
A charming vivid, upstanding beauty; small pointed flower of 
artistic form. White, striped with Cherry-rose outside. Plant 
this tulip in masses or clumps or use as an edging. 3 for 30c, 
$1.00 per dozen, $7.50 per 100.

crimson-scarlet flowers with glistening black center marked with 
gold. 3 for 35c, $1.25 per dozen, $8.50 per 100.

soms, often two to a stem, with bronze exteriors, carried on a

rock garden in the shade. 3 for 35c, $1.25 per dozen, $8.50 per

sembling little bunches of grapes. Fine for planting un¬ 
der trees and shrubbery, in borders, and in rockeries, 
where they may be left undisturbed. They combine 
beautifully in beds with other spring flowers such as 
Daffodils and Hyacinths, or with Snowdrops, Freesias, 
etc.
