Botanical or Species Tulips and Their 
Hybrids 
The followmg collection of Botanical Tulips includes a great 
number of beautiful and interesting varieties, which show a bewilder- 
ing variation of size and shape of flowers, structure of leaves, habits, 
etc. The only thing they have in common is the fact that they grow 
wild in some parts of the world—Asia Minor, Central Asia, Greece, the 
Mediterranean. Cultivation has not modified them and they may be 
planted in the rock garden between creeping plants or in colonies in 
small, warm nooks, a situation where the larger-flowered garden 
Tulips would be out of place. Blooming period April 1 to late May. 
Clusiana (The Lady Tulip). Outer petals bright cherry-red; inner 
petals creamy white; violet base. Small flower, but very distinct 
and beautiful. 8 mm. $1.20 for 10; $10.00 per 100. 
Eichleri. Crimson-scarlet, shaded orange; glistening black center 
marked with gold; lily type of flower. 8 in. $1.00 for 10; $8.00

Fosteriana, Red Emperor (Mme. Lefeber). A glorious scarlet-red 
Tulip of remarkable size and substance; large black center with a 
yellow border. May be forced in mid-February. Flowering at the 
same time as Narcissus, it should be planted with or between 
them. 18 in. $1.70 for 10; $15.00 per 100.

yellow base. None better. Blooms in April. The loveliest of all

Hyacinths make a beautiful border 
Fragrant and Delightful Hyacinths 
Hyacinths for outdoor growing should be planted so that the bulb 
tip is covered no more than 3 inches. Planting dates vary with geo- 
graphical locations, but they may be planted safely until December 1 
in most localities. Bulbs for forcing can be planted until November 15.

heavy root growth develops and then moved to a bright airy room.
