PARROT TULIPS 
When still in bud the flower looks somewhat like the head of a parrot, hence the 
name. Blooms are brilliantly colored and artistically shaped, which makes them par- 
ticularly appealing for home decoration. They may be forced slowly, by late Feb- 
ruary; for this purpose only strong bulbs should be used.

TRIUMPH TULIPS 
Triumph Tulips are a new race, hybrids of Single Early and Darwin Tulips. From 
the Single Early parents they inherit earliness and from the Darwins stateliness. The 
result is something entirely novel and worthwhile—Tulips that bridge the gap between 
the early and late kinds. They bloom about ten days arlier than the May-flowering 
varieties. They have strong, tall stems, and some of the most beautiful colors are 
found in this class. All force readily.
