GIANT DARWIN TULIPS .. May-Flowering 
POSTPAID—Finest Top Size Bulbs 
I N this list we have placed the very finest of the Giant Dar¬ 
wins together with the best of the Giant Breeders as well 
as the new Hybrid Tulips. All of them are of the same 
habit of growth, tall and sturdy with large cup-shaped flow¬ 
ers. These tulips are the pride and glory of the garden. 
On heavy soils the bulbs should be planted 5 to 6 inches

are the best months for planting tulips.
