BARTIGON IN THE FOREGROUND BACKED BY A DOUBLE ROW OF ZWANENBURG 
A FEAST OF TULIPS FOR CUTTING 
50 Flowering Bulbs for $2.25 - Postpaid 
To satisfy the demand for the largest number of Tulips at 
the lowest cost we have made the following offer of 1st and 
2nd sized bulbs. 
These are just right for the cutting bed. Many prefer to 
have a planting from which to cut flowers for the house. This 
leaves their choice ones to brighten the borders and promi¬ 
nent places of the garden. 
We fill our regular Tulip orders taken from the pages 
which follow with top sized bulbs. Here we give you an 
opportunity to purchase smaller bulbs in large quantities at 
lower prices. 
Both 1st and 2nd sized bulbs will flower, the larger bulb 
giving the larger flower and stronger stem. They are well 
suited for cutting purposes. You will find our first sized bulbs 
equal to the largest size generally supplied by the usual 
catalog house, and our second size equal to the bulbs sup¬ 
plied from magazine advertisements. 
In ordering please indicate a second choice, as we are 
limited in the number of bulbs for this offer.

The 1st sized bulbs average AV 2 inches in circumference 
and the 2nd size average 4 inches in circumference. 
Where climatic conditions are known to be difficult for 
growing Tulips, such as the Gulf Coast and Southern Cali¬ 
fornia, only top sized bulbs should be used and these re¬ 
placed each year. 
Clara Butt. A lovely delicate pink flushed salmon-rose. It is 
the most popular pink tulip and is planted in large quantities 
each year. 
Inglescombe Yellow. Quite commonly called the yellow Dar¬ 
win. The large globular flowers are glossy canary yellow. 
Maiden's Blush. One of the most graceful and useful tulips 
for cutting. It is dainty, unusual and greatly admired. Open¬ 
ing primrose, it quickly passes to white with a slight color of 
rose along the edges. This deepens, flushing the entire petal 
as it ages. 
Grenadier. A grand tulip with large flowers of dazzling 
orange-scarlet. 
Ellen Willmott. The long pointed flower of elegant form is 
pale primrose and delicately fragrant. Combines nicely with 
Maiden's Blush. 
Inglescombe Pink. A most lovely tulip of delicate rose-pink. 
La Merveille. Large flowers with pointed petals, the outside 
of which is old rose. Open it shows an intense orange-scarlet. 
Very lovely in vases. 
Bartigon. Cup-shaped, bright crimson flowers. 
Baronne de la Tonnaye. Full rose shading to silvery rose at 
margin of petals. 
Farncombe Sanders. Geranium-scarlet tinged rose. 
Mixed Tulips. A very good mixture.
