HENDERSON'S 

 SELECTED 



NEW GIANT DARWIN TULIPS 



TIH-: ELITE OF THE 

 TULIP WORLD 



(See illustration in colors on the bad cover.) 



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

 own. 



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 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. 



Darwin Tulips may be successfully flowered in pots or pans of soil in the house in winter if not brought in from the cold frame or out-door plunge before the middle of Jan- 

 uary and then grown on cool and slowly in a temperature of about sixty degrees. The early flowering ones — those marked, E. F. and G. — will then flower in February and 

 March — the later ones requiring a little more time. Too much heat is apt to cause them to grow spindling and inferior. The varieties marked* are especially good for late 

 wintering flowering and forcing.
