Double May- \ flowering Tulips 
(Peony-Flowered Tulips) 
These flower approximately at the time of the great Darwin Tulips. They are thankful for a little shading against the 
hot midday sun which will enable them to carry their heavy blossoms erect. Most varieties are fragrant. 
ALLEGRO. This Tulip presents a most beautiful and 
unusual color scheme of bright cherry and white. Height, 
18 inches. $1.55 for 10; $13.00 per 100. 
BLEU CELESTE. Large, violet-purple Tulips flowering 
later than other double sorts. It is very fine for indoor 
decoration and for the garden. Height, 16 inches. $1.75 
for 10; $15.00 per 100. 
EROS. Very large flower of clear old rose. A very inter- 
esting Tulip, as the flower resembles a peony flower very 
closely. One of the best doubles for the American garden 
as the flower has fine substance. Height, 22 inches. $1.35 
for 10; $11.00 per 100. 
MOUNT TACOMA. A very fine, immense, double Tu- 
lip, almost like a full-blown peony; the petals are of the 
purest white with yellow suffusion at the base. Height, 
24 inches. $1.50 for 10; $12.50 per 100. 
ROYAL YELLOW. This new introduction is very beau- 
tiful. Flowers are as large as a peony and pure yellow. 
A combination planting with “Mount Tacoma” and 
“Uncle Tom” is magnificent. Delightfully fragrant. 
Height, 22 inches. $1.75 for 10; $15.00 per 100. 
UNCLE TOM. A very beautiful Tulip. Large, double 
flowers of a uniform deep glossy red. Height, 20 inches. 
$1.75 for 10; $15.00 per 100. 
Parrot Tulips 
YOU WILL LIKE to have some of these quaintly shaped flowers, particularly for house decoration or for clumps here 
and there in the border or where you have strong groups of evergreens. Their artistic form and coloring make them espe- 
cially suitable for cut flower purposes or for long drifts against a deep green background. 
After careful study we have decided to confine ourselves to the following varieties. All are very fine and will give 
you much satisfaction and pleasure. 
BLUE PARROT. A blue sensation is a fitting description 
for this very beautiful Parrot Tulip. Large flowers that 
open wide on good stems. Height, 22 inches. $1.20 for 
10; $9.50 per 100. 
FANTASY. The magnificent pink Parrot Tulip. It is not 
only the strangely exciting form of this Tulip or its main 
color, which is a delightful warm pink, that enthralls 
one; it is the inner color of it, a deep and velvety rose 
color which is more sumptuous than words can tell. The 
wonderful encrustation on back of petals is like an 
enameling of apple-green. And one of the virtues of this 
wonderful flower is its stiff, straight stem. Very lovely 
with Scilla campanulata var. “Excelsior.” Height, 26 
inches. $1.25 for 10; $10.00 per 100. See illustration, 
Color Guide. 
GADELAN. A sensational novelty, resembling a Cattleya 
orchid in color and shape. When fully developed it often 
measures 6 to 7 inches across with a blending of blues 
and purples, edged white with emerald-green markings. 
The inside of the flower is bright violet-purple with white 
center and contrasting black anthers. Fine sturdy stems. 
Height, 22 inches. $1.85 for 10; $16.00 per 100.

ORANGE FAVORITE. A triangular shaped Parrot 
large and beautiful flower. True orange lighter to edges 
of the petals, many times tipped with a narrow margin of 
yellow, yellow base and black anthers, a most outstand- 
ing new novelty. Height, 22 inches. $1.60 for 10; $13.50 
per 100. 
RED CHAMPION. The description for this beautiful 
Parrot would be the same as for “Fantasy” with the ex- 
ception that it is scarlet-red. A fine addition to the Parrot 
group. Height, 22 inches. $1.60 for 10; $13.50 per 100. 
SUNSHINE. Exquisite flower of a bright golden yellow. 
One of the most outstanding Parrot Tulips both for color 
and form. Artistic effects are obtained by planting this 
Tulip with the variety “Gadelan” in semi-shade, particu- 
larly when set at the base of evergreens. $1.75 for 10; 
$15.00 per 100. 
THERESE. A beautiful large Tulip carried on a fine 
stem. This attractive variety is a sport of the well known 
“Mr. Farncombe Sanders” which it resembles in color, 
being a brilliant rosy-red. $1.70 for 10; $14.50 per 100.
