Lily Flowered 
Tulips 
This is a very attractive novelty 
class of Tulips that has been de¬ 
veloped in recent years from the 
crossing of the Cottage Tulip Retro- 
flexa with a pink Darwin. With the 
pointed retroflexed petals of their 
Cottage ancestor, they have the ap¬ 
pearance of the flower of a lily. They 
are classified among the Late or May 
Flowering Tulips. The bloom is large 
and substantial.

Mendel Tulips 
The Mendel Tulips are a very recent development. They have been produced 
by crossing Darwins and Due van Tholl Tulips and have the size, substance and 
shape of the Darwins and the disposition to earliness from the Due van Tholl 
ancestry. They are called after the famous Mendel, whose studies in heredity 
laid the foundation for scientific plant breeding. They may be described as Early 
Darwins, and bloom between the time of the Single Early Tulips and Darwins.
