Lily Flowered Tulips 
This is a very attractive novelty class of Tulips that has been developed 
in recent years from the crossing of the Cottage Tulip Retroflexa, with a pink 
Darwin. With the pointed retroflex petals of their Cottage ancestor, they have 
the appearance 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 recent development. They have been produced 
by crossing Darwins and Due van Tholl Tulips and have the size, substance and 
shape of the Darwin 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.
