PINK SHADES 
*Fortuna. (2). Large, oval-shaped flower of satin rose suffused with fawn. 
Turns to soft rose with advancing age. Sturdy stems. Height, 14 inches. 
$1 per dozen, $7 per 100. 
*Pink Beauty. (4). When it first opens it is white with a narrow pink edge. 
As it develops, the whole flower turns to a lively cherry-rose, with white base 
and a yellow star. Among the handsomest of the dark pinks. Large flowers 
of great substance. Height, 12 inches. 90 cts. per dozen, $6 per 100. 
*Cullinan. (2). A beautiful sport of Flamingo. It is of creamy white color, 
each petal being edged delicate rose. Height, 13 inches. 80 cts. per dozen, 
$5.50 per 100. 
*La Reine Maxima. (2). White, slightly shaded rose. Large fine flower.

*Flamingo. (2). A large, graceful flower of a pleasing shade of carmine-rose.

13 inches. 70 cts. per dozen, $5 per 100. 
CARMINE-ROSE 
*Cramoisi-Royal. (2). Bright carmine-rose. Large flower on a tall, strong 
stem. Unsurpassed for forcing, of unusual substance and especially recom¬ 
mended. The bulbs should not be covered as deeply for forcing as 
others of this class, otherwise the 
stems show a tendency to be too 
tall. Height, 15 inches. 80 cts. 
per dozen, $5.50 per 100. 
*Proserpine. (1). Though one of the 
oldest varieties, it retains its hold 
on the Tulip-loving public because 
of its utter dependability. A silky, 
carmine-rose, of large 3ize, hand¬ 
some globe shape and pleasing 
fragrance, it is a fine indoor as 
well as a splendid bedding variety. 
Height, 14 inches. 90 cts. per 
dozen, $6 per 100. 
SCARLET SHADES 
We advise to force all scarlet vari¬ 
eties slowly at the start, otherwise they 
are apt to be green-tipped. 
*Vermillon Brillant. (2). Brilliant 
vermilion, with yellow base. 
Among the most brilliant of red 
Tulips. Isa very good early forcer 
and a splendid bedder besides. 
Height, 13 inches. 90 cts. per 
dozen, $6 per 100.
