Tulips. 
We are giving this type of Tulips the place which it deserves, namely 
in front, before the Early Tulips. 
With all d ue respect to the old Single and Double Early Tulips, it 
is now generally accepted, that the Triumph Tulips, with their much 
longer stems, very much sturdier growth and substance, are far 
better adapted to the american climate, therefor will last longer out¬ 
side and also for early forcing give more satisfactory results. 
The Triumph Tulips originate from crossing Single and Double Early 
Tulips with Darwin Tulips, which gave them the form and habits 
of the Darwin Tulips and they flower at the same time as the Early 
Tulips.
