DARWIN TULIPS. 
As grown at our Surbiton Nurseries, and 
exhibited at the London May Flower Shows, where 
their grand stately flowers elicit the admiration 
of all. On May 20th, 1908, our exhibit of these 
was awarded the Royal Botanic Society's Gold 
Medal. 
See Illustration on back cover. 
For flower beds and borders we confidently 
recommend the following Darwin Tulips for their 
stately bearing and rich colours. They have been 
specially selected as being distinct, showy, and 
beautiful, so that buyers need have no hesitation in 
choosing the colours they require, as all are good. 
The cut flowers form an elegant decoration for vases, 
and last a long time in water. The lighter lilac 
and heliotrope coloured varieties blend charmingly 
with yellow “Cottage” Tulips such as lire. Moon, 
Vitellina, Gesneriana lutca, lutea pallida, Jlava, and 
Golden Spire, etc. 
By gentle forcing in pots these grand Tulips 
may be had in bloom by March, and will be found 
of great value for indoor decoration on account of 
their lovely soft colours and tall stately bearing. The 
centres of many are most beautifully marked. 
In most cases we give the heights as registered 
at our Nurseries last Spring, also the order of flower- 
ing in relation to the flowering period of the Cottage 
Tulips, (1) being the first to open and (5) the latest.
