Kaufmanniana Hybrid Tulips 
(Waterlily Tulips) 
This is one of the most remarkable group of Hybrids of recent introduction from the beautiful 
Tulipa Kaufmanniana. They flower far ahead of other Tulips on short stems, they establish them- 
selves easily, coming up freely year after year without any care. Most of them have mottled, 
striped, or spotted foliage like Greigii, which is a beautiful and interesting characteristic on its own. 
We very strongly recommend them for the rock-garden, border and other places where they can be 
left undisturbed.
