Hulti- Flowered Culips 
Bunch-flowering or Multi-flowered Tulips are a most interesting lot. 
Instead of producing the conventional single stem with one bloom on 
top, the varieties offered under this heading all grow a strong main 
stem with from three to six branches half way up the stem, each side 
shoot or branch carrying its own flower. The result is that three to 
Six, or sometimes eight, flowers are obtained from one bulb on one 
stem. All the blooms are of good size, are gracefully spaced and as 
you can well imagine, produce an unusual and great mass of color. 
For cutting in particular, they are very decorative and useful, as 
they lend themselves nicely to arrangement. As they are essentially a 
form of Cottage Tulips, they possess the same hardiness and multiply 
quite freely in the garden. 
Rose Mist Six $1.25, Doz. $2.00, 25 $3.50, 100 $12.50 
A lovely pink-colored variety with five to six flowers open at the same

Multi-Flowered Tulips in Mixed Colors 
Six $1.20, Doz. $1.85, 25 $3.35, 100 $12.00 
Culipa Grullemannt 
The result of crossing Kaufmanniana with the Darwin. The flowers 
are long and large, carried on stout stems holding the blossom boldly 
upright. All are about 27 inches in height and of remarkably robust 
habit, resisting disease or all sorts of ailments. Their coloring is 
unique and most attractive, Inga Hume being greatly admired at 
London, Paris, and Berlin flower shows. 
Easily grown and tremendously long lasting. In the garden they will 
outlast any Tulip in existence. The bulbs multiply rapidly. May we 
suggest you plant a few this fall. 
Golden Nugget Six $1.35, Doz. $2.30, 25 $4.15, 100 $14.75 
A bold, strong and exceedingly long lasting flower which is golden yellow 
edged on soft reddish salmon petal faintly sprayed with red on the out- 
side of the petal; inside deep yellow, the center is vivid black. Darker 
and more vivid than Inga Hume. Height about 26 inches.

Inside deep yellow slightly sprayed red, outside red with broad, shapely 
lined yellow edge, large black base, perfectly formed large flower on 
erect stem, very fine variety. Highly recommended for forcing, it will 
outlast any other Tulip and becomes more beautiful as the flower ages. 
Height 24 inches. (Color illustration, page 39.) 
| Chinese Lantern Culips 
Imagine a handful of Tulips having the delicate pure pastel shades 
of our finest Sweet Peas and you have but a fair description of their 
colors. The general effect, however, is that of lighted, delicately colored 
Chinese Lanterns. The perfectly formed globular blossoms glow with 
an iridescent light not heretofore seen in Tulips. The colors are too ex- 
quisite to accurately describe. They have been admired by visiting 
growers from all over Europe. Only one variety available at this time.

Peony: Flowered Culips 
(Double Cottage Tulips) 
These flower at the same time as the Cottage Tulips. They are 
thankful for a little shading against hot midday sun which will help 
them to carry their heavy Peony-like blossoms erect. 
Bleu Celeste Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.10, 100 $14.50 
Large, violet-purple Tulip flowering later than any other double sorts.

inches.

flower resembles a Peony flower very closely. One of the best doubles 
for the American garden as the flower has fine substance. Height 
20 inches. 
Mount Tacoma Six $1.30, Doz. $2.15, 25 $3.75, 100 $13.00

in full bloom; superb for beds.

when it is in full bloom. Most unusual Tulip, which gives a big blotch 
of color.

Lily- Fi lowering Culips 
The Tulips offered under this heading have been kept by them- 
selves because of their distinct Lily-like flowers. They really belong 
with the Cottage Tulips but would be lost or difficult to find if offered 
in that already quite large group. 
Lily-flowered Tulips bloom the same time as the Cottage Tulips, 
and are best used where a light, airy, and graceful effect is desired. 
The delicately curved petals give a delightful effect. As a flower for 
cutting, it surpasses the regular Tulip because they are so much more 
graceful. Don’t miss planting a few this year. The most complete list 
in existence is offered here. 
Astor Six $1.20, Doz. $1.85, 25 $3.35, 100 $12.00

stem. We believe this to be the best of the Lily-Flowered Tulips in this 
color, not overly tall, 23 inches. (Color illustration, page 51.)
