WELCOME SPRING WITH BOTANICAL TULIPS 
A most interesting group of wild Tulip species native of the mountain slopes and valleys of Central Asia and Asia Minor—lovely odd 
shapes, many with reflexed petals and curiously twisted, spotted, and r< flexed foliage. They simply belong to the rock-garden where their 
individual beauty stands out most prominently. Here they thiive and increase if left in the ground year in and year out. Plant them in 
groups of six to twelve among the rocks in fairly deep, well-drained pockets.
