DARWIN TULIPS 



This section of the May-flowering group makes very strong 

 growth, attaining a height of 24 to 30 inches; with large globu- 

 lar flowers of perfect shape, heavy texture and rich coloring. 

 The Darwin class commences blooming about the middle of 

 May, and continues an unusually long time; covering with a 

 wealth of rich bloom, that period which is intermediate between 

 the passing of the spring flowers and the coming of the Rose. 

 Small groups of these tall, stately vivid flowers, gleaming here 

 and there among the garden borders, are most striking and the 

 nucleus of some magnificent color effects. As forcers the well 

 developed Darwin blooms are among the most eagerly sought.
