THE GIANT FRINGED FLOWERS OFTEN CALLED “DRAGONS” 
Lovely vagabond Tulips that have thrown off the conventional form and bear large, very showy and most interesting flowers with curiously and 
deeply laciniated petals of rich and varied colors. When fully opened we have a broad petalled, flaring and loosely built flower of brilliant color 
shadowed with rich apple-green almost its entire length. 
BLUE PARROT. Large and very deeply cut and fringed flower of 
heliotrope-blue. Blooms in the middle of May on strong, stiff stems 24

urban home, but has been and is being used with splendid re- 
sults in many of the city parks, cemeteries, and large estates.
