bronze sheen; outside petals are of richer deeper color edged dull gold,

wiry stem about 28 inches tall.

Here is the richest of violet-blue Tulips, Bacchus, with a dusky bloom on 
its outer petals like that found on grapes. The flower is held very 
straight at the top of a 2\4-foot stem, the beautiful tone of purple 
makes it especially nice to use with sky-blue spring flowers, and the 
suggestion of Anchusa myosotidiflora_is given here as a companion or 
foreground for this variety. Height 33 inches. 
Cherbourg Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.00, 100 $13.75

yellow, with a suffusion of terra cotta, the deeper tone of yellow grow- 
ing stronger toward the edges of the petals. The flower is of gigantic 
size. Height 32 inches.

Chinese Bandit (Mikado) (New) 
Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.05, 100 $14.25 
Immense oval-shaped flower. Chinese red with considerable shading of 
warm, bronzy orange. The inside of the flower is bright and has a vivid 
yeliow base. Fine, old, striking flower, stem not too tall, about 25 inches. 
We believe this to be the largest Tulip flower ever raised. It makes a 
tremendous show in the garden and in addition has remarkable lasting 
qualities. Looks at its best in front of a dark green background and 
would be superb in mess plantings.

new color tones never before found in any Tulips, or for that matter, 
in any other garden flower.
