Triufnph Tulips 
gardens gave us the very phrase we sought as an apt one to convey 
the effect produced by the striking combinations of color to one 
who looks down into the open blooms. "Why this is a flower within 
a flower!” fitly describes how they differ from all other classes. 
We advise everyone to use them freely in planning the Tulip 
garden. 
Remembering that this race comes into bloom in the middle of 
the Tulip season, the figures immediately following the variety 
named will indicate the relative earliness of the varieties included 
in this section. The latest will come into flower with the Darwins 
and all will be at their best just before the majority of the Cottage 
Tulips have reached their full size.
