MONGOLIA. This we consider one of the best of 
the recent introductions; it is one of the largest 
deep yellow varieties in existence. The flowers 
are egg-shaped, of great substance and carried on 
tall strong stems. While the yellow color of this 
beauty is rather deep, it has a tone of softness, 
making it extremely desirable. Indeed an out¬ 
standing variety. Height, 32 inches. $9.25 for 
10; $90 per 100. 
MOONLIGHT. The best pale yellow tulip; a 
lovely color and the flower is very long and of fine 
oval shape. Beautiful in the borders among early 
Irises, Bleeding Hearts and Nepeta mussini. 
Height, 25 inches. $0.85 for 10; $6 per 100. 
MRS. F. E. DIXON. This very beautiful tulip 
makes a deep impression upon all who see it. Of 
immense size, yet artistic in the extreme, lovely 
in form, the softly colored, sulphury yellow bloom 
is carried upright on strong stiff stem. The petals 
have a waxlike texture and are of a substance 
rarely met with. An excellent variety in every 
way, undoubtedly the finest of the Cottage Hy¬ 
brids. A beautiful picture might be made by 
planting this beauty amongst Forget-me-nots or 
with light blue and white Pansies or with a 
background of Lilac President Fallieres. Many 
happy combinations may be made with this won¬ 
derful tulip. Height, 28 inches. As original in¬ 
troducers of this choice variety we are now in a 
position to offer it for the first time in limited 
quantity at a more reasonable price, if purchased 
with other tulips. $3.25 for 10; $30 per 100. 
MRS. JOHN T. SCHEEPERS. The first impres¬ 
sion one gets from this tulip is its majestic beauty. 
Elegantly formed, oval-shaped, large flowers of 
deep golden yellow, very clear of color, are car¬ 
ried on tall, thick, sturdy stems with clear green 
foliage that in itself commands immediate atten¬ 
tion. The entire plant is of the strongest devel¬ 
opment. The blooms are enormous with fleshy, 
wholesome petals of unsurpassed substance and 
of fine lasting quality. A real giant among tulips. 
This magnificent variety is recognized by experts 
as the choicest yellow tulip for garden decoration, 
one that especially suits the American climate. 
Awarded highest honors whenever exhibited. 
Height 30 inches. We offer a limited number of 
bulbs at $1 each; $9.50 for 10; $92.50 per 100. 
MRS. MOON. One of the best tall yellow tulips. 
Beautiful vase-shaped flowers, carried on sturdy 
stems. Splendid among the rich purple Irises of 
the Germanica section. Height, 25 inches. $0.90 
for 10; $6.50 per 100. 
MR. WENTHOLT. A lovely large deep yellow 
tulip of perfect form. One of the most attractively 
colored tulips. Strong and vigorous grower. 
Height 27 inches. $4.50 for 10; $42.50 per 100. 
OSTARA. A most beautiful novelty. Very large 
flowers with long reflexed petals of a very attrac¬ 
tive dull orange. Height, 26 inches. $1.50 for 10; 
$12.50 per 100. 
PERSEUS. A very fine tulip of a most attractive 
light orange. A large flower of Darwin shape 
and carried on a strong stem. Height, 28 inches. 
$2.10 for 10; $18.50 per 100. 
REFULGENCE. A most attractive tulip of a 
warm orange. Similar in color to Breeder Tulip 
Lucifer, but much larger exceptionally beautiful 
variety. A very strong and vigorous grower. This 
wonderful flower should be in every worthwhile 
collection. Have a large clump of these rise out 
of a bank of Forget-me-nots, planted amongst 
Cheiranthus allionii or above yellow and brown 
Pansies. Height, 30 inches. $3.25 for 10; $30 
per 100. 
ROSABELLA. There is hardly a tulip anywhere 
to touch this flower for a certain soft charm. Its 
color may be described as a delicious pink, warm, 
delicate and sweet, as lovely as a pink rose bud, 
or the colors of a sea-shell, tender pink with a 
blush of deeper color suffusing each petal, and 
smart black anthers. Not so tall as some of its 
enterprising contemporaries, yet it carries itself 
nicely on a stem of twenty inches or so, and would 
give particular grace and beauty to a spot where 
taller and dwarfer Forget-me-nots spread them¬ 
selves below. Makes an engaging offset with 
Phlox divaricata and a pale yellow intermediate 
Iris. It is difficult to use measured terms as one 
looks at this tulip and compares it with others. 
This is a flower of ineffable charm. Rosabella 
must never be grown near any other tulip, or too 
near it. It should have a spot of its own, a place 
given to its own loveliness. One of the most 
desirable tulips both in the garden and for cutting, 
with a fine fragrance. Height, 27 inches. $1.10 
for 10; $8.50 per 100. 
VESTA. A superb pale primrose-yellow flower of 
great size and splendid substance, carried on a 
fine tall stem. After a day or two it pales almost 
to white, but lasts long in good condition. Fine to 
plant above pink English Daisies. Late flowering. 
Height, 30 inches. $0.95 for 10; $7 per 100. 
WELWYN. A tulip to which the word exquisite 
is easily fitted. It is fine in form, goblet-shaped 
with blunt, slightly reflexing petals of softest yel¬ 
low with lovely, almost imperceptible shadows. 
Especially lovely for cutting. Height, 27 inches. 
$1.10 for 10; $8.50 per 100. 
YELLOW GIANT. This beautiful variety is one 
of the best of recent introductions; the large 
finely formed globular flower is carried on a long 
strong stem and is of a pure golden yellow. 
Height, 28 inches. $1.10 for 10; $8.50 per 100.
