BARR’S GRAND DARWIN TULIPS 
All Single and May-flowering 
As grown at our Surbiton Nurseries, and exhibited at the London May Flower Shows, where 
their grand stately flowers elicit the admiration of all. 
See Illustration on back cover. 
^ On May 11 th, 1900 , Her late Majesty Queen Victoria graciously accepted a basket of our 
handsome Darwin Tulips on the occasion of the Drawing-Room at Buckingham Palace, the 
stately beauty of the flowers eliciting much admiration. 
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 Mrs. Moon, Vitellvia, 
Cesneriana lutea lutea pallida, Jlava, Yel.ow Queen, Ac. , - , , 1 r 1 
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 flowering 
in relation to the flowering period of the Cottage Tulips, (i) being the first to open and (5) the latest.
