Imported Bulbs 
We usually import bulbs to order only 
but since some of our customers forget to 
send us their orders before July 1st, we 
are obliged to buy bulbs for these late 
orders in America, charge higher prices 
and deliver inferior stock which we cannot 
guarantee. This year we have imported a 
few of the very choicest varieties of bulbs 
in excess of our orders and offer them at 
the same prices as if imported to order. 
These fine things are described in this cata¬ 
log but the prices quoted will be good only 
until the bulbs which we have imported 
are exhausted. We cannot buy bulbs of 
this quality in America and sell them at 
such low prices. The bulbs were person¬ 
ally selected this summer in Europe.

City of Haarlem. Which is the 
finest red Giant Flowering Tu- 
lip in existence? Mr. Elliott, 
who has seen them all says: 
“City of Haarlem.” The color, 
while so intense that it fairly 
glitters, is darker scarlet than 
Farncombe Sanders and the 
sheen is darker. The wonderful 
cup-shaped flower with its pet¬ 
als slightly incurving is larger 
than Farncombe Sanders and 
has a large steel-blue base with a 
white halo. City of Haarlem is a 
glorious Tulip beyond all question.

let Tulip with a rosy bloom; inside 
vivid cerise-scarlet with a white 
base; broad petaled flowers of per¬ 
fect shape and the most popular red 
Tulip in the world. 75c per dot;.;

V ariety 
Faust. No doubt whatever 
about it. If you will get 
them all together in one 
spot and look them over, 
Faust will stand out as the 
finest dark purple 
Giant Flowering Tu¬ 
lip. We know since 
we did this ourselves. 
Faust has an unusu¬ 
ally large flower, col¬ 
ored dark satiny 
purple-maroon with 
a blue base and over 
it all is a glistening 
sheen. 95c per doz.; 
$6.75 per 100. 
Baronne de la Tonnaye. An ex¬ 
quisite cup-shaped flower, col¬ 
ored rich vivid pink, margined 
blush rose, which does not fade 
until the plant is through 
blooming. A sharper and deep¬ 
er pink than Clara Butt. A glor¬ 
ious Tulip from any point of 
view. 75c per doz.; $5.25 per 
100 . 
Clara Butt. Lovely delicate pink 
flowers flushed salmon-rose. 
The inside of the large flowers 
are a deeper pink with a blue 
base and a white halo. No other 
color in Tulips is quite like it 
and few so exquisite. Clara 
Butt is the most popular pink 
Tulip in the world. 70c per 
doz,.; $4.75 per 100. 
Pride of Haarlem. This marvelous va¬ 
riety is lighter in color than Farn- 
combe Sanders, being a glistening 
brilliant rosy crimson. The flowers 
are very large and superb in form 
and have a blue base. In addition 
this variety is slightly sweet scented. 
Unquestionably no finer light red 
Tulip exists. 75c per doz;.; $5.25 per 
100 . 
La Fiancee. A dark rose Tulip, 
darker than either Baronne 
de la Tonnaye or Clara Butt. 
Splendid large flowers of an ex¬ 
quisite deep rose-pink with old 
rose shadings on the edges of 
the petals. The base is blue. 
A variety which Mr. Elliott al¬ 
ways recommends to his per¬ 
sonal friends. 90c per doz;.; 
$6.50 per 100.
