Giant Darwin Tulips 



Originated in France, some twenty-five years ago, and named for 

 the great naturalist, Darwin. They are noted for the unusual clear- 

 ness of their colors, great substance of their flowers, and the robust 

 growth of the plants. Their chief characteristics are the perfect cup- 

 shape of the flowers and the blue, black or white coloring at the base 

 of the petals inside of the flower. The colors inside are just as bright 

 as outside, and they remain beautiful as long as the flower lasts. 

 The colors range from the palest lilac to purplish black, including 

 shades of rose, scarlet, crimson, violet, brown, white, etc., but no 

 yellow. Most vigorous of all Tulips. Flowers of immense size, borne 

 on long, strong stems, attaining a height of 2 to 3 feet. They bloom 

 some three weeks after the early Tulips, and are v.iry suitable for 

 growing in clumps amongst shrubbery, and in hardy plant borders. 

 Unsurpassed for cut-flowers. Can also be grown indoors successfully, 

 if grown cool and not forced into early bloom. We here offer a 

 splendid collection of Darwins.
