56.) 
Mayflower Six-$1.35, Doz. $2.30, 25 $4.10, 100 $14.50

the largest deep yellow varieties in existence. The flowers are egg-shaped, 
of great substance and carried on tall, strong stems. While the yellow 
color of this beauty is rather deep, it has a tone of softness, making it 
extremely desirable. Height 32 inches. (Color illustration, page 56.)

clear of color, are carried on tall, thick sturdy stems with clear green 
foliage. The entire plant is of the strongest development. The blooms 
are enormous with petals of unsurpassed substance and of fine lasting 
quality. A real giant among Tulips. This magnificent variety is recog- 
nized by experts as one that especially suits the American climate.

Rosabella Six $1.35, Doz. $2.30, 25 $4.10, 100 $14.50 
There are few Tulips that can match this flower. Its color may be 
described 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 pale 
yellow Iris. 
Rosy Wings Six $3.50, Doz. $6.50, 25 $12.00, 100 $45.00 
This is the pink form of the well known Cottage Tulip Advance. Rosy

flowers are large and sumptuous, as well as exceedingly colorful. One 
of the choice New Hybrid Cottage Tulips. 
Scarlet Glory Six $1.35, Doz. $2.30, 25 $4.10, 100 $14.50 
A beautiful flaming, vermilion-red Tulip. The color is amazing in its 
carrying power; at a distance it creates an outstanding effect, shows 
up well in front of evergreens. Excellent for beds because it is not 
too high, only 26 inches. 
Sulphur Pearl Six $1.45, Doz. $2.50, 25 $4.65, 100 $17.00 
A gorgeous sulphur-yellow flower of great substance. One of the finest 
yellow Cottage Tulips and tops in its color group. Does not fade and is 
outstanding in every respect. Height about 30 inches. 
Wall Street Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.05, 100 $14.25 
Soft canary-yellow, large and well-formed flowers on good stiff 27-inch 
stems have made this one of the favorite paler yellow Cottage Tulips. 
It blends beautifully with pink and lavender Tulips. We are sure you 
will agree with us that it is one of the best in this shade. 
Yellow Emperor Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.10, 100 $14.50 
A brilliant butter yellow, rather long flower, considered by many one of 
the best yellow Tulips for garden planting in this shade. The flower is 
substantial, well formed and large. The foliage is short and not prolific, 
making this a very suitable variety for planting with Pansies, Forget-me- 
nots, or dwarf Phlox. Height 26 inches.

Here is the richest of violet-blue Tulips, Bacchus, with a dusky bloom on 
its outer petals like that found on grapes. The flower is held very 
straight at the top of a 214-foot stem; the beautiful tone of purple 
makes it especially nice to use with sky-blue spring flowers, and the 
suggestion of Anchusa myosotidiflora is given here as a companion or 
foreground for this variety. Height 33 inches. 
Cherbourg. 2 Six $1.35, Doz. $2.30, 25 $4.20, 100 $15.00

Perhaps the most artistic of all Breeder Tulips; a flower of enormous size 
carried on a very tall stiff stem. Of glorious coloring and in every way 
desirable for every purpose. The beautiful intriguing color is of an 
Indian-brown, flushed coppery brown; a very effective dark, wood-brown 
Tulip with a burnished metallic sheen and illusive rose-colored lights. 
One of the handsomest of the brown Breeders, standing on a stem 38 
inches high. (Color illustration, page 53.)

Simon Bolivar Six $2.00, Doz. $3.50, 25 $6.50, 100 $23.00 
This is one of the new and sensationally fine Breeders. The huge flower 
is a brilliant old gold shading to orange without any markings; center of

and substantial, as well as immune to hot weather. The stiff stem is 
25 to 26 inches tall.

Choice Mixed Breeder Tulips 
Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.05, 100 $14.25 
Mixed bulbs, as a rule, do not appeal to the planter because of the 
difficulty in the blending of colors. Breeder Tulips, however, are in 
a class by themselves, and their colors do permit easy blending. They 
are in shades of bronze, golden bronze, violet, buff, maroon and 
terra cotta. We suggest a liberal planting for cut flowers.
