Breeder Culips in Mixed Colors 
For an artistic blending of rare, pastel colors there is nothing 
in flowers which can match the Breeder Tulips. The subtle tints 
of bronze, golden bronze, buff, maroon, terra cotta, soft violets 
and lilacs overlaid with dull gold all harmonize and blend into 
one of the richest and rarest displays of color it is possible to 
create. Mix in a few small branches of copper or bronze-leaved 
foliage and the results will equal those of an expert flower ar- 
ranger. Great care has been taken in making this mixture. Only 
the best and finest kinds are used. All shades and tints are care- 
fully proportioned for finest possible effect.

Parrot Culips 
You will enjoy some of these new quaintly shaped flowers, par- 
ticularly for house decoration. They are stunning in clumps here and 
there in the border, in front of shrubs or groups of evergreens. Their

flower purposes. Fantasy is recommended for pot culture also. Forced 
slowly in not too high a temperature it develops into one of the most 
unusual Orchid-like flowers you have ever seen.

novelty. 
Fantasy Six $1.10, Doz. $1.80, 25 $3.25, 100 $11.50 
The gorgeous pink Parrot Tulip. A sport of Clara Butt, with the same 
habits, height, strength of stem and time of flowering. The flowers are 
of unusual and beautiful form, the petals being laciniated, having 
curious excrescences on the outside. It is not only the rare form of this 
Tulip or its main color, which is a soft rose-pink; the shadings of the 
cup are a deep velvety rose color which is more sumptuous than words 
can tell. The encrustation of back petals often carries a delightful shade 
of apple-green. Height 26 inches.

a blending of blues and purples, edged white with blue-green markings.

contrasting black anthers. Fine sturdy stems. Height 22 inches.

The Black Parrot 
Each 65c, Six $3.50, Doz. $6.50, 25 $12.00, 100 $45.00 
This rare, black-flowered Parrot Tulip we can offer only in a very 
limited quantity. It is a most exotic flower and in tremendous demand 
by Dutch growers who are all trying to obtain a few bulbs for growing 
on and building up their stocks. This purple-biack Parrot flower is so 
unique and strange we thought we would offer a few tc our customers 
but we cannot guarantee delivery of bulbs if ordered after September 
lst. The bulbs are too rare and will be planted by the grower imme- 
diately after that date. 
Violet Queen Six $1.35, Doz. $2.39, 25 $4.29, 100 $15.00
