THE BREEDER TULIPS 
It is to this group we must look for the odd colors which 
do not appear among the Darwim and Cottage Tulips. The 
colors are generally subdued. We suggest usmg them in 
combination with Darwin or Cottage Tulips m order to 
provide contrast to the more brilliant colormgs 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.

Copernicus—27 in. 
A medium-sized flower of dark coppery red, shaded with old- 
rose; chestnut-brown inside, with a glowing yellow base.

variety. 60 cts. for 3, $1.75 for 10, $4.20 for 25, $15.85 per 100 
TRIUMPH TULIPS 
A new early strain resulting from the cross-hybridization 
of Darwin and Single Early Tulips. Triumph Tulips are 
large-flowered, strong-stemmed, and grow from 18 to 26 
inches high. The flowers resemble Darwins but they bloom 
at least a week earlier. In the opimion of many they are 
destined to eventually supplant the Single Early group. 
All are splendid for February forcing.

SINGLE EARLY TULIPS 
At the time when Early Tulips bloom, there are scarcely 
any brilliant garden flowers open except Narcissus and 
Hyacinths and, in spite of all the beauty of Narcissus, they 
lack contrast in large plantings because of their limited color 
range. The Single Early Tulips supply the brilliance which 
is lacking at that season. A second very desirable quality 
about the Early Tulips is that the bloom is over and the 
plants matured in time to permit replanting the beds with 
Summer annuals which will come into bloom early im the 
season. 
Brilliant Star—12 in. 
Rich vermilion-scarlet, yellow base. An unusually fine Tulip 
for early forcing and an excellent bedding variety. 
55 cts. for 3, $1.60 for 10, $3.75 for 25, $14.30 per 100 
De Wet—15 in. 
An enormous bowl-shaped flower of vivid golden yellow, flamed 
with burning orange. One of the finest Tulips in the world. Sweetly 
scented. 50 cts. for 3, $1.40 for 10, $3.30 for 25, $12.55 per 100 
Diana—17 in. 
Handsome, large, pure white blooms on tall, straight stems. 
Excellent for early forcing and bedding. 
45 cts. for 3, $1.30 for 10, $3.15 for 25, $11.90 per 100 
Ibis—14 in. 
Well-formed flowers of deep brilliant rose, silvery white at the 
margin. 40 cts. for 3, $1.25 for 10, $3.00 for 25, $11.45 per 100 
Keizerskroon— 14 in. 
One of the oldest but still popular Tulips. It grows about 14 
inches tall and is of a blazing crimson-scarlet color, with a broad, 
rich, golden yellow edge. No other variety gives such brilliant 
and dazzling effect. 
45 cts. for 3, $1.35 for 10, $3.25 for 25, $12.35 per 100 
Rising Sun—14 in. 
Flowers very large, pure yellow. One of the best of this color. 
40 cts. for 3, $1.20 for 10, $2.90 for 25, $11.00 per 100 
PARROT TULIPS 
These are the freaks of the Tulip family. The very large 
buds usually twist and turn in a way to suggest the head 
and beak of a parrot. They open to broad, irregular, and 
fantastic flowers with slashed, fringed, laciniated, puckered, 
ruffled, and otherwise distorted blooms. Don’t be dis- 
couraged with their early appearance. They are strikingly 
different from other Tulips in growth; are attractive and 
we recommend that by all means you grow a few “Parrots.” 
Fantasy—26 in. 
An enormous, popular variety. Has shades of flesh-pink, shell- 
pink, scarlet and white, marbled and mottled with green on the 
outside. Petals are feathered and fringed fantastically and the 
stems are strong. Always attracts favorable attention. 
65 cts. for 3, $1.70 for 10, $4.05 for 25, $15.40 per 100 
Sundew—25 in. 
A very unusual Tulip which resembles a Darwin Tulip in form 
much more than it does a Parrot. Bright cardinal-red with a dark 
center. The petal edges are fringed, giving the blooms a very 
charming and unique appearance.
