DARWIN TULIPS, GRETCHEN. 

 "BULBS AND TUBEROUS-ROOTED PLANTS'^ 



MAIDEN'S BLUSH OR PICOTEE. 

 DARWIN TULIPS 



Brilliant, self-colored single late Tulips of immense size, borne 

 on strong stems, many of them 2 feet high. The blooms are of 

 almost every conceivable color, from pale blush to the brightest 

 red, lilac, light blue and purple to almost black, etc. 



Darwins have become wonderfully popular during the past few 

 years, a fact not surprising to those acquainted with the perfect 

 beauty of their form and substance, their rich, brilliant colors, 

 their long, straight, stiff stems, the persistence of their blooming 

 period and their adaptability either to outdoor growing or forcing 

 under glass. Most of the varieties may easily be forced indoors 

 by mid-winter or the end of February. Each. Doz. 100
