Border Collection of May-flowering Tulips 
BREEDER 
COTTAGE 
DARWIN 
VARIETIES 
The use of Tulips in formal gardens is becoming more and more noticeable in recent years. In 
the garden featured Tulips have been used for many years for the effective display in May. As the 
picture shows, the varieties are grouped in irregular fashion, and the use of pansies in front of the 
Tulips adds considerably to the effectiveness of the planting during May time. Both Tulips and 
pansies are removed in June and replaced with summer-blooming annuals or bedding plants. 
Striking effects can be obtained by the planting in clumps of 10, 25, or 50 each, as best suits the 
area and the taste of the gardener. Much is heard of proper color schemes, but we believe each in¬ 
dividual should select the order and contrasting of colors which suits his or her particular garden. 
The color scheme illustrated can be obtained by planting the following varieties: Pride of Haarlem, 
Clara Butt, Jaune d’CEuf, William Pitt, Mrs. Moon, Farncombe Sanders, LaTulipe Noire, Rosabella, 
Bleu Aimable, Bronze Queen.
