DARWIN TULIPS 
For the Open Ground 
The flowers of this superb class have well been called ‘‘The Tulip Aristocrats.’’ The remarkably 
brilliant coloring and splendid substance of their distinctly globular or cup shaped flowers of large size, 
their long strong stems and robust growth of plant, make them unsurpassed for May blooming in the 
garden. Darwins are not only very desirable for outdoor bedding and last a long time after Cutting, 
but have an advantage over other classes of late tulips in that they may be forced in pots provided it is 
done slowly. Another remarkable characteristic of Darwins is that the color inside the flower is just as 
DARWIN TULIPS 
bright and sometimes even brighter than the 
outside. There are no true yellow Darwins. 
The varieties we offer have been selected from 
a very large list after careful trials and we 
believe they are the most satisfactory that 
are obtainable.

Rembrandt Tulips 
Late Flowering for the Open Ground 
These late tulips are much like the Darwins 
but are striped and feathered, in this respect 
resembling the Byblooms formerly so much 
used. The late Rembrandts, however, are 
larger than Byblooms, and come in a greater 
variety of shades and colors. They are of fine 
form and substance, lasting well after cutting. 
Rembrandt Mixed. Darwin tulips with 
striped or feathered flowers. 4c. each; 
4oc. per doz.; $2.50 per Ioo.
