Outstanding Bulb 
Developments for 
1947 
Outstanding in our trials for 
the past season were the lovely 
Peony-Flowered Tulips, the new 
and more practical Parrot or 
Fantasy type Tulip and the out- 
standing new Botanical or Species 
Tulip. 
The Double Late Tulips were 
very impressive because of their 
adaptability as a cut flower as 
well as a garden flower. A cut 
vase of these resembles nothing 
more than a gorgeous arrange- 
ment of Peonies. The new Parrots 
are notable for their strength, 
stiff stem and strong petal sub- 
stance, making them also an 
ideal cut flower. . 
Botanical Tulips heretofore 
have been confined to the popu- 
lar Clusiana, Kaufmanniana and 
Eichleri. There are now a-whole 
series of brilliant flame. colored 
Tulips that are earlier than 
Crocus, starting with Red Em- 
peror and continuing with Prin- 
ceps and Fusilier. 
Every garden should have at 
least one clump of the fleming 
Red Emperor.

_ BULBS FOR — 
HOME GROWING 
The advantages and beauty of 
bulbs grown in the home during 
the long winter season have but 
recently been recommended. 
In the past many flower lovers 
were content to grow Paper- 
White Narcissi and an occasional 
pot of Lily-of-the-Valley, never 
daring to attempt some of the 
lesser known but more alluring 
bulbous plants. 
We offer for your considera- 
tion a list of bulbs that can be 
planted with every assurance of 
complete success in the home. 
Amaryllis, Sequoia 
Hybrids 
Calla Lilies, White 
Calla Lilies, Yellow 
i For bright rooms and tem- 
Freesias perature not over 60 degrees. 
French White Roman 
Hyacinths 
Lachenalia 
Veltheimia 
The above list can be regarded 
as almost fool proof, but we, of 
course, suggest that any of the 
other items appearing in our In- 
door Bulb Section should be at- 
tempted, for with a modicum of 
care and understanding very sat- 
isfactory results can be obtained.
