LOUIS XIV. The vigorous plant has a large, goblet- 
shaped flower, which possesses a most artistic blending of 
tones of indescribable beauty, deliciously scented. Dark 
bluish violet with tawny margin flushed golden brown and 
dull blue base with a yellow star, shaded bronze. A mass 
planting of this unique Tulip gives a comforting feeling 
of repose. Picture a large border of these giants above 
masses of Forget-me-nots or yellow Pansies; or the beau- 
tiful effect obtained by planting them with “Dillenburg.” 
“Bacchus,” “Gorgeous” and Darwin Tulip “Madame But- 
terfly.” Height, 34 inches. $1.50 for 10; $12.50 per

MRS. BEECHER STOWE. A fine deep purple, of good

REVE D‘OR. This rich golden bronze Tulip, with color 
shadings ranging from a clear yellow through the center

purple Pansies produces a warm and glorious color com- 
bination. Height, 28 inches. $1.55 for 10; $13.00 per 100.

‘Utilizing the Nooks and Comers 
HARDLY ever can it be said that a garden is so full of bulbs 
that no more can be tucked away in it. Nearly always there 
are nooks and corners that might be utilized to bring about 
charming spring pictures. A careful inspection of even the 
smallest of gardens will usually reveal many such places that 
at the present time are giving no good account of themselves 
at all. It is a great pity not to make use of them in the interests 
of spring delight. Here are a few such positions that in most 
gardens are neglected.

Aconites. Daffodils, Crocuses.
