Parrot Tulips FiZering 
These peculiarly formed and brilliantly colored Tulips are ideal 
for home decoration. In the garden, they are not suited to formal 
beds as their stems, with the exception of Fantasy, introduced by 
us in 1927, do not hold the flowers erect. They are, however, 
very effective in informal borders and in front of shrubbery and 
evergreens. 
FANTASY. A sport of the Darwin Tulip, Clara Butt, exactly the 
same beautiful true pink, except that the inside color is even 
more intense—a delightful warm pink, thrilling to the eye of 
the Tulip lover. The petals of this quaint flower are laciniated 
and the outside or back, is artistically marbled with apple-green. 
Height 27 inches. Doz. 80c, 100 ^6.00. 
Tulip Species 
These Tulips, which are of simple cultivation, thrive in ordinary 
soil of the rock garden. Bulbs do not need to be lifted as they 
increase year after year. 
Australis. An April-flowering type. Yellow tinged with reddish 
bronze on outside of the petals. Doz. ^1.00, 100 ^7.50. 
Clusiana (The Lady Tulip). White, cherry outside. Doz. 75c, 
100 ^5.50. 
Eichleri. Large crimson-scarlet with a glistening black center 
marked with gold. Doz. 75c, 100 ^5.50. 
Kaufmanniana. White, tinted carmine, yellow center; the earliest 
flowering variety. Doz. ^1.20, 100 ^9.00. 
Fosteriana, Red Emperor. An immense Tulip of dazzling scarlet, 
with a large black center. Blooms early in April. Probably the 
largest Tulip in existence. 18 in. Doz. ^5.00.
