The Qorgeous Parrot 
Tulips 
All the Vividness of the Tropics 
(FLOWER IN MAY) 
D O you seek the unusual, the startling, the dramatic? Would you 
like flowers that are so completely different from all other 
flowers—so strange—that they will provoke the startled admiration 
of your friends? Then plant some Parrot Tulips. Their gorgeous, 
lavish tropical colors are in large splashes. Their weird, fan' 
tastic shapes are unlike any other flower. The new “Fantasy” 
is unquestionably the world’s most gorgeous Tulip. 
For best effects allow four bulbs for each 
square foot to be planted. 
Admiral of Constantinople. Fine red. 85c per 
doz.; $6.00 per 100. 
Cafe Brun. Brown and yellow stripes. 85c per 
doz.; $6.00 per 100. 
Fantasy. The marvelous pink Parrot Tulip. 
A sport of Clara Butt with the same base 
color, height, strong stem and time of flow¬ 
ering. It has in addition, encrustations of 
apple-green on the backs of the petals which 
are laciniated in the characteristic manner of 
the Parrot Tulips. 3 for 40c; $1.20 per doz.; 
$9.00 per 100. 
Gadelan. For fifty years the plant breeders 
could not improve Parrot Tulips. Then they 
created Fantasy, the most gorgeously beauti¬ 
ful Tulip in the world. Now they give us 
the marvelous Gadelan. Its color is a glori¬ 
ous purple and its habits are as fine as Fan¬ 
tasy. $2.50 each; $27.50 per doz. 
Lady Derby. Another triumphant creation in 
the new race of Tulips which started with 
Fantasy. A lovely lilac Parrot, the color get¬ 
ting lighter towards the edges. 3 for $1.00; 
$2.75 per doz.; $19.00 per 100.

Therese. Having started to improve the Parrot 
Tulips, the Dutch plant breeders did not 
stop with Fantasy. They went on to create 
Therese. Imagine a flower form like Fantasy 
colored with the glowing scarlet of the mag¬ 
nificent Farncombe Sanders and you will have 
some idea of what marvelous Therese looks 
like. $2.00 each; $22.00 per doz. 
Violet Queen. Lovely deep lavender-violet is

Though we had admired these Tulips in 
Holland, until recently we had not had an 
opportunity to test them in America. Ex¬ 
hibited for the first time in our Tulip Show 
they created a profound sensation. Every 
order booked included the bunch-flowered 
Tulips (Tulipa Multiflora). 
The standard Tulip produces one flower 
to the bulb. The bunch-flowered Tulips 
produce from five to eight full-sized flow¬ 
ers on each 2-foot stem. The colors are 
lovely and the effect is entirely new from 
anything heretofore seen in Tulips.

mine-rose. $1.10 per doz.; $8.50 per 
100 . 
Mons. le Mottet. Bunch-flowering creamy
