Parrot Tulips 
The irregularly formed flowers of Parrot Tulips, with their curiously lacin- 
iated and attractively fringed petals, are most unusual. Rich and varied 
shades, including green, are to be found in the same flower. Coffee Color, 
Cramoisi Brilliant and Perfecta bear their flowers on slender, willowy stems 
about 15 in. long; effective in groups in informal borders. Gemma, Fantasy 
and Lady Derby are taller growing and the larger flowers are held erect on 
long, strong stems. Parrot Tulips are entirely distinct, and one of the most 
interesting plants you can grow. May flowering.
