MICHELL’S SUPERB TULIP BULBS 1 
IMPORTANT NOTICE. —It should be borne in mind that Easter in 1935 comes on April 21st, and it is of importance that 
florists keep this in mind, particularly when planting and handling their bulbous stock. 
Our Tulip Bulbs are grown in the best districts of Holland to insure perfect development and full sized stock. Those who place 
their orders with us may be sure of getting bulbs that will not only bloom, but also prove true to name. 
The asterisk (*) preceding the variety denotes that it is suitable for forcing as well as bedding. The letters E, F and G following 
the variety indicate their relative time of blooming, the E’s being the earliest to bloom. The figures indicate the normal height in inches. 
Tulip bulbs are packed 2E0 in a bag; please order in units of this number if possible. 
If Tulip bulbs are wanted by Parcel Post, add 10c. per doz., 25c. per 100 for postage, to the first and second zones; 
for other zones, please add additional postage. 
DARWIN TULIPS 
These are the most profitable Tulips for the florist to grow. 
The flowers being borne on long stems, make them valuable for 
cutting. Our prices are based on the best quality and for top¬ 
sized bulbs.
