“Godet Porfait, 2 $0.80 per 12; $6.00 per 100

in great heat; unquestionably the best variety in this collec¬

large quantity so that at time of introduction it could be 
offered at a moderate price. Can be had this year from Way- 
side Gardens only. (Color illustration, page B).

outstanding purple Tulip, and one deserving its illustrious

striking creamy base outlined with blue, and its purple-velvet 
anthers, it is a variety to adorn the stateliest garden. A 
beautiful combination may be had by planting Cottage 
Tulip Mayflower or a similar shade amongst, or in front of,

“Choice Mixed Breeder Tulips $0.70 per 12; $5.25 per 100 
Mixed bulbs, as a rule, do not appeal to the planter be¬ 
cause of the difficulty in the blending of colors. Breeder 
Tulips, however, are in a class by themselves, and their 
colors do permit easy blending. They are in shades of 
bronze, golden bronze, violet, buff, maroon and terra 
cotta. We suggest a liberal planting for cut flowers.

Bunch-flowering or Multi-flowered Tulips are a most 
interesting lot. Instead of producing the conventional 
single stem with one bloom on top the varieties offered 
under this heading all grow a strong main stem with from 
3 to 6 branches, half way up the stem, each side shoot or 
branch carrying its own flower. The result is that 3 to 6 
or sometimes 8 flowers are obtained from one bulb. All 
the blooms are of good size, are gracefully spaced and 
as you can well imagine, produce an unusual effect and 
a great mass of color. The soil must be kept rich because 
if planted in poor ground they will not be as floriferous. 
All the varieties offered are most attractive, some 
very unusual in their coloring.
