CHESTER JAY HUNT 
Parrot Tulips 
time will fall over and lie on the ground. They are shy bloomers 
and are practically good for one year only. 
A number of new varieties have been introduced lately and we 
are including the best of them. Some of these newer kinds seem 
to have better stems than the older sorts and are fairly good for 
garden purposes; for exhibitions these new things will alwayjs 
appeal to the judges. They flower together with the other Late 
Tulips with the exception of the early variety Gemma.

orange; very brilliant. 15 in. 10 bulbs, 5 5 cts.; 100 bulbs, $4.5 0.
