No Flowers Equal Tulips for Spring Color 
DARWIN TULIPS 
Darwin Tulips 
The Darwin Tulips along with the Cottage and 
Breeder groups constitute the main part of the 
tulip planting. These three groups bloom at the 
same time and each supplies shades and types 
lacking in the others, but necessary for the mak¬ 
ing of a well formulated tulip planting. 
The numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4 indicate relative time 
of flowering, those numbered 1 being the earliest.
