DREER, PHILADELPHIA—SPRING FLOWERING BULBS. StTER-SupERB Darwin Tulips DREER'S SUPERB DARWIN TULIPS This magnificent May-flowering class has within the past few years by sheer force of their many merits forged their way to popu- larity by leaps and bounds, and are now grown by almost everj'body who loves spring flowers; they are quite distinct in style of growth from the other late flowering sorts; stately in ap- pearance attaining a height of 24 to 30 inches, and bearing on long strong straight stems beautiful globular flowers of remarkably heavy texture, in a large range of colors, embracing almost every conceivable tint in rose, heliotrope, claret, maroon, crimson and othef rich and rare shades. The only color in which they are deficient is yellow, and for this the May flowering Tulip Inglescombe Yellow, as well as the other yellow sorts, offered on page 33, supplies the wanted color perfectly. Unsurpassed for bedding and for cutting, and most of the varieties can be forced into bloom in March without much trouble. As the result of a generous crop this season, many of the finest varieties are offered at very low prices. We offer below a collection of six Super-superb sorts, covering the most wanted colors in sorts of extra high quality, also a collection of six popular sorts, that can be depended upon to produce 100% results the general list of standard sorts offered on the page opposite are all strictly high-grade. Six Super-Superb Sorts We offer this collection especially for those who are particularly interested in this wonderful class of Tulips each being considered a great improvement in size and vigor over previous introductions of similar color. Afterglow. A wonderful blending of deep rosy orange with salmon tinted margins, always greatly admired. per doz.; per 100; $
