Giant 
T HE tremendously large flowers of this race of new 
Giant Breeders are far superior to the already 
known varieties. In size they may be compared to 
Indian Chief, but most of them are much larger. Their 
colors are finer and more attractive, the petals more 
substantial and they will last a very long time. Aver¬ 
age height from 30 to 36 inches. Destined to become 
the most popular Breeders when stock is more plen¬ 
tiful. 
Special Note. —These Tulips are very scarce and 
are not carried in stock. We cannot assure delivery 
unless ordered early, preferably by July 15.
