BULBS FOR AUTUMIM PLA^TIIXC 7 ! 



NEW ° GIANT - DARWIN - TULIPS. 



THE TULIP ARISTOCRATS. 



These gorgeous new late or May-flowering tulips are very stately and beautiful — producing immense flowers on tall sturdy stems attaining a height of from 

 two to three feet. The flowers are models of perfection in form, lasting wax like substance — and in a great variety of both dainty and richly brilliant colorings 

 ranging from blush through pinks, rose, salmon-red, crimson, etc., to rich ox-blood reds, from lavender through mauve, light blue to violet-purple, and from light brown 

 to black. The centers of many of them are beautifully marked. The Dar'wins also include two or three good whites — but clear yellows have not yet been produced. 

 Therefore where the latter color is desired selection should be made from the " Cottage " Tulips offered on pages 16 and 17. The Darwin Tulips are exceedingly 

 effective when grown in groups of a dozen or more bulbs of one variety in the garden or herbaceous border with a back ground of greenery which enhances their 

 magnificence. The beauty, hardiness and perpetuity of the Darwin Tulips is making them very popular. As cut flowers they are unsurpassable. The long- 

 stemmed, bold, durable flowers have a dignity and character exclusively their own. Darwin Tulips may be successfully flowered in pots or pans in the house in 

 winter if grown cool and not forced into bloom before March.
