MENDEL TULIPS 
A new strain, obtained by crossing Duc van Tol Tulips with Darwins, 
presenting many new and uncommon varieties; many interesting varia- 
tions will be found among these. Many varieties possess the same forcing 
qualities as the Duc van Tol Tulips which makes it possible to have long 
stemmed Tulips in flower during January. In the open, Mendel Tulips 
flower a few days later than the Single Early Tulips. 
AMIDONETTE, 1%. Deep rose-red with white margin. Very fine for
