DARWIN TULIPS 



This magnificent May-flowering class has by 

 sheer force of its many merits forged its way 

 to popularity. They are quite distinct in 

 style of growth from the other late flowering 

 sorts; stately in appearance attaining a height 

 of 24 to 30 inches, and bearing on long strong 

 straight stems beautiful globular flowers of re- 

 markably heavy texture. The only color in 

 which they are deficient is yellow, and for this 

 the Cottage Tulip Inglescombe Yellow, as well 

 as the other yellow sorts, supplies the wanted 

 color perfectly. 



DREER'S DE LUXE 

 DARWIN TULIPS 



We offer this collection especially for those who are 

 particularly interested in this wonderful class of Tulips, 

 each being considered a great improvement in size and 

 vigor over previous introductions of similar color.

 with a rosy orange glow, inside like brilliant orange 

 topaz. Most fascinating in the advanced bud stage when 

 the petals start to unfold. 70 cts. per doz.; $4.75 per 100; 

 $40.00 per 1000. 

 City of Haarlem. Considered the finest and most bril- 

 liant red Darwin. Wonderful cup-shaped flower, with

 Darwin. 95 cts. per doz.; $6.75 per 100; $60.00 per 1000.

 tones with pleasing silvery sheen. The prominent white
