THERE are great number of
choice tulip varieties, so many
that when one picks up
u catalogue it is almost impos-
sible to draw any conclusions from
the reading of descriptions. The finest
place to choose varieties would be in
the garden of some tulip fancier with
a considerable collection. Next best
would be the flower shows sponsored
by the garden clubs. AS rule, the
home garden is not the best place for
a variety test, as tulips appear at their
best when massed in single colors in
the foreground Of shrubbery. The red
and pink varieties are particularly
numerous, but one would not be dis
appointed with Allard Pearson or City
of Harlem for dark red and Fran
combe Sanders for light red. Clara
Butt, one Of the oldest Darwin var
ieties is to many peoples minds the
choicest pink. Afterglow and Dido
present a fine combination Of pink and
gold shades. Moonlight is very pleas
ing light yellow and white swan q
splendid white. Velvet King, Of gor-
geous purple, is a favorite in many
home gardens, and Cardinal Manning,
in shades Of brown and purple, is an
other sterling variety. The early fiow-
ering tulips are no longer widely
popular, since the tall growing and
longer lasting types, such as the Dar-
wins and Breeders, have been develop
ed. Yet nothing could be more snowy
than a bed of Kaiserkroon in its scar
let and gold hues. The early varieties
are not as adaptable for cutting and
drop their petals too quickly. Then,
too, they blossom during the narcis-
sus and hyacinth season, when peoples
interest Is centered in other flowers,
whereas the DarwinS and Breeders
come into flower between the narcissus
and iris and roses.

Tulip Breaking.
THE sudden appearance OF strange,
fantastic colors in tulips is due to
diseases of the virus type transmitted
by insects and by the shears used in
cutting the flowers There was time
when these broken colors were believed
due TO mutations and were highly
treasured. But now breaking has
become so general that it is consid-
cred more as catastrophe. New bulbs
from Europe sometimes show breaking
Of colors, but more often 1t is the
second year that this occurs. Varie-
ties Of the Darwin type, usually OF
solid color, such as red and pink, take
on stippling and weird colorings.
These broken plants should be dug
and destroyed Just as soon as observed
