FANTASY 
Parrot Tulip 
Giant Breeder Culips 
A strain of late May-Flowering Tulips characterized by excep- 
tional height and interesting color combinations. Many unusual hues 
are produced by an overlay of ““bloom”’ similar to that seen on grapes. 
This class also includes a good many so-called art shades so useful 
in the garden. Their culture is similar to that of the Darwins but in- 
general they are not suitable for forcing. 
Extra Size Bulbs, 12 cms. or larger.

tall stems. 3-55c, 6-$1.00, 12-$1.95, 25-$3.60, 100-$13.50.
