ales OR THREE weeks of brilliant color in April, following the daffodils and preceding 
~ 
the Darwin tulips, are worth much to any garden. The early tulips alone can supply it; 
and among them can be found varieties of delicate tints and shades, as beautiful and with 
flowers as large as anything the May-flowering classes can produce. In height, 12 inches is 
not uncommon, and a graceful carriage fits these taller kinds to serve in any role a Darwin 
would grace. 
Explanatory. The number following the name of the variety denotes the height in inches,

New Tall, Late Varieties 
Many new varieties have been developed in this class of tulips, which 
produce the largest flowers of all. They differ from the more familiar 
early double tulips in much the same way that early singles, differ from 
the tall, late flowering giants. Blossoming at the same time with the 
Darwin, Cottage and Breeder types, they have much longer stems. and 
larger flowers than the early doubles. 
There is no flower to compare with these tulips in their season; they 
rival peonies in size and beauty. The variety Eros is illustrated in color 
on the front cover of this catalogue. A small group of any variety 
planted in the garden border will serve as a focal point to attract admiring visitors. They 
are planted and cultivated in the same way as other tall, late tulips. 
While these new varieties make dazzling displays in beds, their tall stems and grace- 
ful habit fit them well for planting informally among perennials or other tall, late tulips. 
(20 in.) The large double flowers are of a deep 
FOS. true pink with silvery high-lights Its double 
flowers, borne on tall, strong stems, are compared 
to peonies by all who see them, but we do not know 
any peony which has its lovely coloring. A group 
planted in any garden avill be arouse admiration
