Darwrin Tulips- 



Cont. 



Blooms in May 



King Harold. The deep mahogany red of these massive, large blooms 

 creates a striking picture in the garden. The vigor and strength of the 

 plants also are bound to impress the gardener most favorably. Besides its 

 use for garden display and cutting it also has proved a good forcer. 24 

 inches. 3 for 22c; 12 for 75c; 100 for $5.50. 



La Fiancee. A rich rose whose charm is heightened by the lovely silvery 

 pink, petal margins. It has a loveliness and grace that will endear it to 

 those who favor colors of medium intensity. Its large blooms are well 

 supported. 30 inches. 3 for 2Sc; 12 for 85c; 100 for $6.00. 



La Tulipe Noire {The Black Tulip). Seen against a white fence or a light 

 colored foundation wall this Tulip appears as a velvety black, though 

 close examination reveals that it is a very deeply colored maroon-black. 

 25 inches. 3 for 25c; 12 for 85c; 100 for $6.25. 



President Taft. An extra-choice Darwin Tulip of a rich deep red color 

 with glowing vermilion highhghts. Shows a dark blue base on the inside 

 and makes an excellent variety for bedding or planting in the perennial 

 border. 28 inches. 3 for 27c; 12 for 90c; 100 for $6.75. 



Pride of Haarlem. This takes its place among the very finest though it 

 is an old favorite with very large, old rose blooms. Most glorious in bright 

 sunlight when the blooms glisten with a scarlet sheen. 28 inches. 3 for 22c; 

 12 for 75c; 100 for $5.50. 



Prince of Wales. A scintillating cherry red with enormous flowers worthy 

 of a place in every garden. The richness of its color and the sparkle of its 

 finish make it an outstanding attraction particularly on account of its 

 guod height. 28 inches. 3 for 25c; 12 for 85c; 100 for $6.00. 



Princess Elizabeth. A rich rose-pink of perfect form deepening in color 

 as the flowers expand. The stately habit of the plants and the large size 

 of the flowers make it a lovely Tulip for your garden. It also is good for 

 forcing. 26 inches. 3 for 22c; 12 for 7Sc; 100 for $5.50. 



Rev. H. Ewbank. This sombre shade appeals by the pleasing softness of 

 its large heliotrope blooms which display a glistening silvery lavender sheen 

 during the sunny hours of the day. Of sturdy habit and large-flowering. 

 22 inches. 3 for 22c; 12 for 75c; 100 for $5.50. 



Valentine. Truly handsome with glorious large blooms carried on strong 

 stems. Outstanding for its color which is a light violet-purple with a 

 glistening metallic sheen that gives unusual lustre to the well-formed flowers. 

 22 inches. 3 for 25c; 12 for 85c; 100 for $6.00. 



Wm. Copland (Sweet Lavender). This is primarily a forcing variety which 

 gives excellent results. When grown in this way the color is a lovely 

 soft lavender. In the garden the blooms are more of a lilac-rose shade. 

 25 inches. 3 for 22c; 12 for 75c; 100 for $5.50. 



Wm. Pitt. A magnificent color — glowing scarlet that blazes in the sun- 

 light like live embers where figuratively it lightens the garden like a bon- 

 fire. It is a strong grower producing extra large and heavy blooms which 

 are noted for their splendid lasting qualities. Also much in demand for 

 forcing. 24 inches. 3 for 22c; 12 for 75c; 100 for $5.50. 



Zwanenburg. A beautiful white Darwin Tulip — in our opinion so far the 

 finest one available for garden planting. It has lovely, large, well formed 

 blooms with pure white petals. Vigorous and strong, carrying its flowers 

 on fine stiff stems that contribute so much to its display in the garden. 

 30 inches. 3 for 30c; 12 for $1.00; 100 for $7.25.

May-Time Mixture 

 of Tulips 



An Incomparable Blend in a 

 Most Complete Range of Colors 



For richness of color this mixture surpasses 

 anything else that can be offered because it is 

 made up from named varieties of Darwin, 

 Cottage Garden, and Breeder Tuhps so that the 

 color range is more complete than in mixtures of 

 the individual classes that are included. As all 

 of these are May-flowering and similar in habit, 

 stature, and size of bloom the effect to be 

 achieved with them is really outstanding.
