HENDERSON'S G mt DARWIN TULIPS 



THE TULIP ARISTOCRATS— The Darwin Tulips are exceedingly effective when grown 

 in the garden or herbaceous border with a back ground of greenery. The beauty, hardiness 

 and perpetuity of Darwin Tulips has made them very popular. As cut flowers they are unsur- 

 passable, the long-stemmed bold flowers having a dignity and character exclusively their 

 own, combined with extraordinary lasting qualities. 



To aid in making selections of varieties for continuity of bloom, etc., we have indicated their 

 relative time of flowering by the letters E, F, G, H and I. The E's being the earliest to bloom. 

 The varieties marked * are especially good for winter flowering and forcing. The height is also 

 given but may vary. The bulbs should be spaced about 5 inches apart and base of the bulbs 

 should be 5 to 6 in. deep on heavy soils and 6 to 7 inches deep on light soils.
