REMBRANDT TULIPS 
These late or May-flowering garden tulips form a new class of stately beauty. They 
are in reality Darwin tulips which have ‘‘broken’’into permanent varicgations—the flowers 
of various rich colors being striped, blotched and marked with different shades and colors. 
The flowers, large, of perfect-form and lasting substance, are borne on sturdy stems about 
two feet in height. These Rembrandts are very effective planted in groups in the herba- 
ceous or shrubbery border and will remain 3 or 4 years without replanting.
