CITY OF HAARLEM. A dependable, handsome 
Darwin of great substance and of a fiery cardinal- 
red. The deep violet base of this tulip, outlined 
in white, gives it a striking effect when open. It 
is admirably at home among all the lighter colored 
spring flowers, such as the hardy Alyssum Silver 
Queen, with gay effects in the garden or border. 
Height, 31 inches. $1.05 for 10; $8 per 100. 
CLARA BUTT. Lovely pure pink tulip that 
should be in quantity in every garden; of a de¬ 
lightful color that will go with most anything. 
In some lights illusive soft salmon suffusions in 
this fine flower add to the interest of this beau¬ 
tiful blossom. Would make a striking effect 
massed against purple Barberry. Height, 28 
inches. $0.80 for 10; $5.50 per 100. 
DRESDEN CHINA. Elegantly shaped flower of 
true Darwin type, carried on very tall straight 
stem. The well chosen name is indicative of the 
unusual colorings represented in this fine variety. 
It is a very bright tulip that draws immediate 
attention in a collection. Indeed a unique flower, 
which would be extremely effective over yellow 
Pansies or Munstead Primroses. Height, 30 
inches. $2.85 for 10; $26 per 100. 
DUCHESS OF HOHENBERG. Most lovely as¬ 
sociation of grey-lilac and rosy heliotrope. A 
magnificent flower of perfect form, borne on a 
stiff stem. Makes lovely beds with white Violas. 
Height, 29 inches. $1.50 for 10; $12.50 per 100. 
ECLIPSE. Dark, rich, red Darwins are not too 
common, but here is one of beautiful form, splen¬ 
did firmness of petal and stem, which would be 
capital if used with La Tulipe Noire, a tulip long 
known to many of us as a most valuable flower 
for the spring enrichment of the border. A glow¬ 
ing, dark blood-red flower with a lustrous surface 
and violet, white-margined center. So substantial 
is its quality that it lasts well through the tulip 
season. Makes an indescribably gay display with 
white Camassias and associated with another 
tulip of a more brilliant hue. Height, 30 inches. 
$1.85 for 10; $16 per 100. 
FAUST. A long, large and splendid flower of deep 
wine color, much lighter than the other Darwin, 
La Tulipe Noire, but related to that in color. 
This is a flower of oval form of fine spreading 
petal, and well held up on its tall stems; a mag¬ 
nificent thing for cutting or for rich effects among 
other tulips in the border. Height, 31 inches. 
$0.95 for 10; $7 per 100. 
FLAMINGO. A genuine addition to the ranks of 
the pure pink tulips, this exquisite globular, 
pointed flower of serene color has received a 
warm welcome. It has a well defined white base 
with a blue halo and the petals have a silvery 
sheen. Enchanting amongst Camassias and sil¬ 
ver leaved Nepeta while it is also very effective 
amongst Bleeding Hearts. Height, 28 inches. 
$0.90 for 10; $6.50 per 100. 
GIANT. Immense rounded flowers of heavy tex¬ 
ture, the color of Burgundy wine, with violet 
shadowings and a white base, marked with blue. 
Indescribably rich above a carpet of golden brown 
Pansies. Height, 30 inches. $0.95 for $10; $7 per 
100 . 
GLORIA SWANSON. An enormous flower of 
rosy-red, becoming a clear red upon fading with 
white center. Tall strong stem, flower has great 
lasting qualities. An excellent variety for exhi¬ 
bition purposes. Height, 28 inches. $2.25 for 10; 
$20 per 100. 
HELEN EAKIN. This chaste, noble tulip is con¬ 
sidered one of the finest of all white tulips, stand¬ 
ing over thirty inches tall; it has a round cup 
which for purity of color and perfection of tex¬ 
ture is not to be seen elsewhere. There is no col¬ 
ored base; the tulip is the purest white through¬ 
out except for soft violet anthers and greenish 
white stigma. Its gentle curves and beautiful 
proportion give it a look of great distinction; 
matchless of form, of great size, it is a symbol of 
heavenly purity. A suggestion for flowers of all 
kinds to neighbor this would be Phlox divaricata 
Laphami, Barr’s Alpine Blue with Aubretia be¬ 
low ; then with the dominating flower of this 
glorious tulip might be seen a spring picture 
worth having worked to create. Height, 28 inches. 
$2.10 for 10; $18.50 per 100. 
INSURPASSABLE. Here is another Hybrid of 
exceptional merit. A very large lilac flower, of 
fine form and great substance, is held aloft on tall 
strong stem. Planted with Munstead Primroses, 
or rising out of a mass of Forget-me-nots and the 
double Arabis, or standing in a clump by itself, 
this unusual variety will attract immediate atten¬ 
tion and will make very beautiful groupings. A 
clump placed at the foot of a Laburnum will be 
exceptionally pretty. Indeed worthy of your care¬ 
ful consideration for a spot in your garden where 
you would place some of these choice tulips. 
Height, 28 inches. $3.50 for 10; $32.50 per 100. 
JUBILEE. Of deepest wine color and deepest 
violet, this tulip with its splendid carriage, good 
form and strong texture has a place by itself 
among the purple Darwins. A very fine, grace¬ 
fully carried tulip whose dusky coloring used 
generously has the value of shadow in the bor¬ 
ders. The Corinthian-Purple coloring is toned 
down at the edges of the petals to Daphne-red; 
the base is bright blue with greenish markings. 
Its telling hue is charming above Forget-me-nots, 
and if planted with a variety such as Duchess of 
Hohenberg, in drifts above these blue flowers, the 
effect should be wonderfully good. Height, 31 
inches. $1.10 for 10; $8.50 per 100. 
KATHLEEN PARLOW. An exceptionally fine 
new Darwin of such unusual coloring that it 
draws immediate attention in the border. The 
large, beautifully shaped flower is of a silvery 
rose with a white center; it is carried on a strong 
tall stem and has all the qualities to make it one 
of the most refined tulips so far introduced. 
Height, 30 inches. $1.50 for 10; $12.50 per 100. 
KING GEORGE V. A dazzling cherry-rose tulip 
of great size and noble carriage; one of the finest 
introductions and a most telling color in the 
garden. The cup is graciously modeled and deep 
and the Jacqueminot shadows at the base of the 
petals lend an exquisite softness to the brilliant 
flower. The color holds well in sunshine. Lovely 
with early mauve and white Irises near Bechtel’s 
Crab-apple. An effective setting may also be had 
by planting a mass of this amongst Myosotis or 
Cheiranthus allionii. Height, 26 inches. $1.10 for 
10; $8.50 per 100.
