First Introduction of This Remarkable Strain Into America. 
These new giants all have magnificently colored flowers of a qual¬ 
ity and substance heretofore not found in Tulips. The size of flower 
cannot be compared with other Tulips. Stems are strong and erect, 
flower petals substantial, prolonging the period of flowering by often 
more than a week. Lack of space prohibits adequate description; let 
that, however, not deter you from planting a few of these remarkable 
new Tulips. The richness of tone as well as sheer stately dignity will 
eventually open all garden gates for them.
