Here is a complete list of the most outstanding novelties in 
Parrot Tulips. These new Parrots, in contrast to the old type, 
all have heavy firm stems to keep the flowers erect, and are a 
valuable addition to any garden. These new types, stranp to say, 
have all sported from the more popular varieties long known to 
the flower lover. Most everyone has admired Parrot Tulip 
Fantasy, which variety is by far the best known of this new type, 
and which has sported from the well-known Darwin Tulip, Clara 
Butt They are so entirely different from all the other flowers 
that they provoke the startled admiration of all who see them.
