Choice Mixed Breeder Tulips. Mixed bulbs, as a rule, 
do not appeal to the planter because of the difficulty 
in the blending of colors. Breeder Tulips, however, 
are in a class by themselves, and their colors do per¬ 
mit easy blending. They are in shades of bronze, 
golden bronze, violet, buff, maroon and terra cotta. 
We suggest a liberal planting for cut flowers. 3.90 34.00 
Cottage and Hybrid Tulips 
MAY-PIOWERING TULIPS 
The Cottage Tulips come into bloom in early May. They are 
hardy and robust, with long, slender, but very stiff stems. The 
flowers are mostly long and oval, many of them with the petals 
gracefully reflexed. The Cottage Tulips as a cla'-s are rich in the 
more delicate and artistic shades of pink, yellow, orange, and fawn 
with salmon, old rose and amber. They are best of all Tulips for 
cutting and should be planted outdoors. They will last for many 
years.
