RAY 
. . NEWEST 
of the NEW 
Each year Max Schling selects for his customers the 
outstanding new Tulip produced in Holland. 
This new Tulip RAY is the lily-flowered variety carried 
to perfection. Starting at its green tinged yellow base, 
it bursts into dazzling orange which grows rosier as it 
ascends. 5 inch outer petals flare gracefully to clean 
points tipped with autumn brown. The RAY tends to 
uniform height (30 inches) and size of flower. 
$1.00 each, $10.00 the dozen, $85.00 per 100 
RED EMPEROR TULIP 
Chiang Li Fu, according to an 
ancient and honorable legend was 
enormous in stature, with an im¬ 
mense head of red hair. The Red 
Emperor Tulip stands majestically 
on a 20" stem, is a flaming and 
glossy orange-scarlet, and its width 
is as GREAT AS THIS PAGE. 
(This is a recent variety, and in¬ 
creases in size and beauty the 
second year.) 
45c each, $4.50 the dozen

TULIP ON THE COYER

nificent tulip makes a brilliant hub around which

THE TRUTH A ROUT RULRS 
We are sometimes asked to explain the difference between Schling bulbs and 
others advertised at substantially lower prices. The photograph tells the story. 
100 Schling Bulbs, costing $5.50, weigh 6 lbs. 8 oz. 100 bulbs, advertised for 
$3.00, weigh only 3 lbs. 10 oz. Low priced bulbs are sure to be the little fellows 
left after the finer specimens are selected. Max Schling takes none but the finest, 
top size quality—first pick—fairly bursting with stored-up energy and life. 
For you, that means certainty of fine growth and handsome flowers, true to 
type and color. Though they cost a little more, you will be repaid many times 
over in satisfaction and pride in your garden.
