GIANT DARWIN TULIPS 



Without question, the Darwins are today more popular among lovers of Tulips than any other class. 



They are noted for their clear, bright colors, their tall, sturdy growth, and their large, beautifully formed, cup-shaped Hovvers. 

 Although brilliant, their colors are not harsh and, consequently, the different varieties harmonize well when planted together or with 

 other Mowers. In season they follow two to three weeks after the Early Tulips, and their blooming period overlaps that of the Late or 

 Cottage Tulips. The colors range from the palest lilac through slate-blue, purple and maroon to almost black, and from blush-white 

 through rose-pink and scarlet to crimson. 



Some varieties of Darwin Tulips are suitable for forcing, but it is for outdoor beds and borders that they are best adapted, and there 

 they reign supreme. If you have room for only one bed of Tulips, by all means plant Darwins.
