Henderson's Selected 



GIANT DARWIN TULIPS 



The Darwin Tulips are exceedingly effective when grown in the gardea 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 tkey 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 heiavy soils and 6 to 7 inches deep on light soils. 



They may also be grown in pots in the house in winter, if grown cool and not forced into bloom before 

 March. The varieties nrnrked * are best for the purpose.
