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 ever>-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 other 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. 



We offer below a collection of six Dazzling sorts, covering 

 the most wanted colors, all sorts of extra high quality, 

 that can be depended upon to produce 100% results, the
