Red Emperor 
A Mellie ones

ee a meet 
Words fail to do justice to this spectacular 
variety which has the largest flowers of 
any known tulip ... at least twice the 
size of ordinary Tulips. 
The color is a pure, rich shade of bright 
vermilion-scarlet, with a glistening sheen 
that literally glows in the bright spring 
sunshine. Deep in the throat is a glossy 
black base, bordered with bright yellow, 
which intensifies the brilliance and purity 
of the scarlet. 
Red Emperor is a very permanent tulip, 
increasing steadily and blooming magnifi- 
cently year after year without replanting 
or any trouble, 
Usually flowers in Mid-April along with 
the earliest Daffodils, Narcissi, and Mus- 
cari.
