Rembrandt Tulips 



These are late Tulips, similar to the popular Darwins in season, 

 height and habit of growth, but distinguished by their unusual colors 

 and markings. The ground colors are mostly delicate shades of rose 

 and lavender, striped and splashed in an odd but attractive fashion 

 with darker shades. A bed of Rembrandt Tulips reminds one in color 

 and design of a rich Oriental carpet. Each Doz 100
