This magnificent May-flowering class has within the past few years by sheer force of their many merits forged their way to' popularity by leaps and bounds, and are now grown by almost everybody who loves spring flowers; they are quite distinct in style of growth from the other late-flowering sorts; stately in appearance, attaining a height of 24 to 30 inches, and bearing on long strong straight stems beautiful globular flowers of re- markably heavy texture, in a large range of colors, embracing almost every conceivable tint in rose, heliotrope, claret, ma- roon, crimson and other rich and rare shades. The only color in which they are deficient is yellow, and for this the May-flower- ing Tulip Inglescombe Yellow, as well as the other yellow sorts, offered on page 9, supplies the wanted color perfectly. Unsurpassed for bedding and for cutting, and most of the vari- eties can be forced into bloom in March without much trouble. At the National Flower Show, held in Philadelphia, March 25th, 1916, we exhibited a number of pans of these in bloom, which attracted the attention and admiration of thousands of visitors. We offer below a collection of six super-superb sorts, which covers the best of recent introductions, while on the opposite page we list twenty-four of the finest standard varieties selected out of a large collec- tion as being the best and most distinct.
