HENDERSON'S New Giant Darwin Tulips— 



GENERAL 

 LIST 



These popular late or May-flowering tulips are very stately and beautiful — producing immense flowers on tall sturdy stems attaining 

 a height of from 2 to 3 feet. The flowers are models of perfection in form, lasting wax like substance — and in a great variety of both dainty 

 and richly brilliant colorings ranging from blush through pinks, rose, salmon-red. crimson, etc., to rich ox blood reds, from lavender through 

 mauve light blue to violet purple, and from light brown to black. The centers of many of them are beautifully marked. The Darwins also 

 include good tinted whites — and a clear yellow has been introduced by us this year in our New Yellow Darwin Tulip Mary Eaton, described on 

 page 6. The Darwin Tulips are exceedingly effective when grown in groups of a dozen or more bulbs of one variety in the garden or her- 

 baceous border with a back ground of greenery. As Cut flowers they are unsurpassable. The long stemmed, bold, durable flowers have a 

 dignity and character exclusively their own. Darwin Tulips may be successfully flowered in pots or pans in the house in winter if grown cool 

 and not forced into bloom before March. The varieties marked * are especially good for that purpose 



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 inches deep on heavy soils and 6 to 7 inches deep on light soils. 



We can supply individual bulbs of any of the sorts described below at one- 

 tenth of the dozen price. 6 Bulbs of a variety sold at the dozen rate, 25 



at the hundred rate. „
