Below are offered a selection of well known standard varieties of Darwin, Cottage, and 
Breeder Tulips. These bulbs will be imported from one of the best bulb growers in England. 
We have tested their bulbs, and have found them very satisfactory. 
Because of the possibility of losses at sea, we urgently advise immediate ordering as well 
as giving to us the privilege of sending other varieties of the same color and price as those 
ordered by you. We have extended that privilege to our shipper in England also. 
We urge ordering at once! Quantities are very limited.

Rosabella 
There are few Tulips that can match this flower. Its color may be de- 
scribed as a delicious pink, warm, delicate yet rich, handsome as a pink 
rosebud with a blush of deeper color suffusing each petal, and smart 
black anthers. Not overly tall, yet it carries itself nicely on a stem of 
27 inches. An engaging combination with Phlox divaricata or a pale 
yellow Iris. Rosabella is best not grown near any other Tulip. It should 
have a spot of its own, a place given to its own loveliness. One of the 
most desirable Tulips for the garden and for cutting. Fine fragrance. 
Height 27 inches. 
Rose Copeland Doz. $2.30, 100 $15.00

advantage. Height 25 inches.
