HENRY CORREVON. A very attractive novelty. Bold, 
large, cup-shaped flowers of rose-red, a lighter line run¬ 
ning up through the center of each of the inner petals. 
Base of flower is white, just touched with ageratum-violet.

evergreen background and rising from a ground cover of 
Jacob’s ladder. Height, 28 inches. $1.45 for 10; $12 per

flower, carried on a sturdy stem. Very good canary- 
yellow; occasionally shows a crimson edge. Plant with 
forget-me-nots or among sky-blue flax. Height, 2 I inches. 
$.75 for 10; $5 per 100. 
JANE ALDRED. A very beautiful introduction. Flowers 
of great size of a uniform creamy yellow, egg-shaped with 
anthers of deep bluish gray-green and a slight touch of 
the same color at the base. A stately tulip, one of the 
finest of the light yellows, outstandingly lovely rising from 
a mass of forget-me-nots. Height, 34 inches. $2.35 for 10; 
$21 per 100. 
JEANNE DESOR. A long, large flower much resembling 
the Darwin type is carried erect on a strong tall stem. 
The color is very striking, of a deep orange-yellow with 
a suffusion of scarlet towards the edges of the petals. A 
late bloomer, it has increasing value as a variety that 
should be carefully considered when adding to your collec¬ 
tion for the border. Height, 28 inches. $1.15 for 10; $9 
per 100. See illustration, page 42. 
LEMON QUEEN. A splendid tulip of fine form and 
substance. Strong and vigorous grower. Its color is a 
pure soft yellow, fading with age to cream. Combine 
with the deep purple The Bishop’’ with Phlox divaricata, 
var. Laphami as a foreground planting. Height, 26 inches. 
$1.30 for 10; $10.25 per 100. See illustration, page 29. 
MADAME BUYSSENS. An exceptionally fine two-toned 
yellow tulip of outstanding merit. Of exquisite primrose- 
yellow, deepening to a deep yellow within the cup and a 
chamois-yellow base. An occasional blaze of green on the 
petals only adds to its charm. Very lovely amidst yellow 
and bronze-toned wallflowers. Height, 26 inches. $2.45 
for 10; $22 per 100. 
MAGNOLIA. An exquisite variety of a creamy white 
with cherry flushes. A strong and vigorous grower, very 
large flower. A fine exhibition tulip. Height, 28 inches. 
$1.65 for 10; $13 per 100. 
MARJORIE BOWEN. This extraordinary variety dis¬ 
plays unusual coloring. The beautifully formed flower, 
which is large and carried on a strong tall stem, is of a 
shade ol buff and salmon which passes into deep rose- 
pink with salmon shades; the center is white. Its best use 
is with forget-me-nots near, though in any spot where the 
myrtle’s lavender-blue flowers abound, this tulip would be 
charming rising from among them. Height, 26 inches. 
$1.35 for 10; $11 per 100. See illustration, page 35. 
MERCURIUS. A true Darwin-type tulip of a pleasing 
citron-yellow shade. The flowers are carried on tall strong 
stems. This fine tulip will find a deserving place where a 
soft yellow among Darwin tulips of even height is desired. 
Height, 28 inches. $1.25 for 10; $10.25 per 100. 
MIMOSA. A beautiful tulip. Strong and vigorous 
grower. Its color is somewhat difficult to describe. The 
basic color is cream-yellow with light brownish red 
markings running through the center of each petal. Base is 
dark blue with prominent anthers. Interesting when 
planted in combination with tulips of red and orange 
tones. Height, 28 inches. $1.35 for 10; $11 per 100. 
MONGOLIA. This we consider one of the best of the 
recent introductions; it is one of the largest deep-yellow 
varieties in existence. The flowers are egg-shaped, of 
great substance and carried on tall strong stems. While 
the yellow color of this beauty is rather deep, it has a tone 
of softness, making it extremely desirable. Indeed an out¬ 
standing variety. Plant in combination with Breeder tulips 
Bronze Queen and “Louis XIV’’ with bronze and 
purple pansies as ground cover. Height, 32 inches. $6.25 
for 10; $60 per 100. 
MOONLIGHT. The best pale yellow of the older va¬ 
rieties; a lovely color with a very long flower of fine oval 
shape. Beautiful in the borders among early irises, bleed¬ 
ing hearts and Nepeta mussini. Height, 25 inches. $.90 
for 10; $6.50 per 100. 
MRS. F. E. DIXON. This very beautiful tulip makes a 
deep impression upon all who see it. Of immense size, 
yet artistic in the extreme, lovely in form, the softly 
colored, sulphury-yellow bloom is carried upright on strong 
stiff stem. The petals have a waxlike texture and are of a 
substance rarely met with. A beautiful picture might be 
made by planting this beauty among forget-me-nots or 
with light blue and white pansies or with a background of 
lilac President Fallieres. Many happy combinations may 
be made with this wonderful tulip. Very late. Height, 
28 inches. $2.35 for 10; $21 per 100. 
MRS. JOHN T. SCHEEPERS. The first impression one 
gets from this tulip is its majestic beauty. Elegantly 
formed, oval-shaped, large flowers of deep golden-yellow, 
very clear of color, are carried on tall, thick, sturdy stems 
with clear green foliage that in itself commands immediate 
attention. The entire plant is of the strongest develop¬ 
ment. The blooms are enormous with fleshy, wholesome 
petals of unsurpassed substance and of fine lasting quality. 
A real giant among tulips. This magnificent variety is 
recognized by experts as the choicest yellow tulip for 
garden decoration, one that especially suits the American 
climate. Awarded highest honors whenever exhibited. 
Height 30 inches. $6.25 for 10; $60 per 100.
