SINGLE EARLY TULIPS 
Because of their brilliancy of coloring coming 
so early in the spring, the early tulips have al¬ 
ways been great favorites for garden display in 
formal beds and in clumps in the border. While 
the stems are not as long as the May flowering 
types, many of the varieties make delightful cut 
flowers. These are the tulips to use for early 
forcing.

BOTANICAL TULIPS OR SPECIES 
We are listing here some of the finest tulip 
species. Since they are the ones that grow readily 
under garden conditions they are moderate in 
price. They may be planted in deep sunny pockets 
in the rock garden or other places where they will 
have deep soil, good drainage and plenty of sun. 
Plant 5 to 7 inches deep and do not disturb for 
several years. 
Clusiana (Candlestick or Lady Tulip). A charm¬ 
ing little flower of bright rose edged white. Slen¬ 
der tall stem and very narrow long foliage. (14-in.) 
12 for 75c, 100 for $5.00. 
Eichleri. Large flowers of brilliant crimson 
scarlet with a glistening black center marked 
gold. Very effective in the rock garden or border. 
With us it is as easy to grow as the early tulips. 
12 for 90c, 100 for $7.00. 
Fosteriana Red Emperor (Madame Lefeber). 
One of the most extraordinary tulips ever intro¬ 
duced. Very large long petals of vermillion-scarlet 
with black base, bordered yellow. Earlier than 
most of the single early tulips. (18-in.) Each 60c. 
Gregii. This variety created a sensation in our 
plantings this year. The flowers are simply huge 
and of a most vivid shade of orange-scarlet. The 
foliage is unlike any other tulip—mottled with 
brown purplish dots. Each 50c, 12 for $5.00. 
Kaufmanniana (Waterlily Tulip). Large creamy 
flowers marked on the outside with carmine. In 
the sun the flower opens flat showing the yellow 
center. The earliest of all tulips. (8-in.) 12 for $1.

terior base rosy red. Very charming for cutting.
