THE BREEDER TULIPS 
It is to this group we must look for the odd colors 
which do not appear among the Darwin and Cot- 
tage Tulips. The colors are generally subdued. 
We suggest using them in combination with Darwin 
or Cottage Tulips in order to provide contrast to the 
more brilliant colorings of these groups. They grow 
from 2 to 3 feet in height and bloom in late May. 
Bronze Queen—28 in. 
An exquisitely shaped flower of bronzy buff tinged with 
rose-purple outside; inside, apricot brown edged with 
bronzy buff at the edges; yellow base. 
AO cts. for 3, $1.40 per doz., $10.50 per 100 
Copernicus—27 in. 
A medium-sized flower of dark coppery red, shaded 
with old-rose; chestnut-brown inside, with a glowing 
yellow base. 40 cts. for 3, $1.85 per doz., $10.35 per 100 
Dillenburg—27 in. 
Brilliant salmon-orange, shaded rose; inside glistening 
orange. 45 cts. for 3, $1.60 per doz., $11.90 per 100 
Louis XIV—30 in. 
A very large, rather frilled, incurved flower of dull black- 
ish purple broadly margined with brownish gold. This 
is a most stately variety. 
55 cts. for 3, $1.95 per doz., $14.75 per 100 
TRIUMPH TULIPS 
A new early strain resulting from the cross-hybridi- 
zation of Darwin and Single Early Tulips. Triumph 
Tulips are large-flowered, strong-stemmed, and 
erow from 18 to 26 inches high. The flowers re- 
semble Darwins but they bloom at least a week 
earlier. In the opinion of many they are destined 
to eventually supplant the Single Early group. All 
are splendid for February forcing. 
Alberio—24 in. . 
Deep cherry-red with a contrasting yellow edge. An 
excellent forcing variety. 
40 cts. for 3, $1.50 per doz., $11.45 per 100 

Algiba—18 in. 
Deep purplish mauve shading lighter toward the edge. 
Fine lavender when forced. 
35 cts. for 3, $1.30 per doz., $9.90 per 100 
Canada—20 in. 
Deep rose-pink, creamy white in the center of each petal. 
40 cts. for 3, $1.40 per doz., $10.75 per 100 
Kansas—20 in. 
Snowy white with Jemon-yellow center and ivory sta- 
mens. Early. 50 cts. for 3, $1.75 per doz., $13.25 per 100 
Lord Carnarvon—25 in. 
Creamy white, flushed with deep rose toward the margin, 
but with a narrow white edge. 
AO cts. for 3, $1.85 per doz., $10.35 per 100 
Mississippi—18 in. 
Handsome blooms of bright fiery-red. Excellent for 
either bedding or forcing. 
40 cts. for 3, $1.35 per doz., $10.15 per 100 
DOUBLE TULIPS 
Because of their showy masses of bloom, the 
Double Tulips are valuable for mass effects in the 
garden as well as being important forcing bulbs. 
They bloom just after the Single Early Tulips. 
Mr. Van der Hoef—12 in. 
Early. An exquisitely formed golden yellow variety 
tinged with ruddy marks; ruffled and fragrant.

rosy pink as the flower matures. Excellent for forcing.
