May'Flowering Darwin Tulips 



In our selection of tried and true varieties of Darwin CMay- 

 Flowering) Tulips listed on this page, we have eliminated those 

 of less desirable qualities. Each of the below we highly recom- 

 mend as standing supreme not only in the various colors but also 

 as to the size of their large, cup-shaped blooms and long, sturdy 

 length of stem. 



Holland's 1928 crop of May-Flowering Tulips has been quite a \ 

 large one and of excellent quality. Prices have accordingly de- L 

 dined and this season we are olTering the highest grade of Darwin 



Tulips tha*v Holland produces at prices that a few years ago were unheard of. We urge all Tulip 

 lovers to take advantage of these prices and plant as many Tulips as their garden space will 

 permit. Full planting instructions are given on cultural sheet in back of catalog.
