Richardson Wright (House & Garden) writes: 
For several years now the "Ideal Darwin" Tulips have made a 
most gallant and brilliant display in my garden. They possess 
sturdy substance that leaves nothing to be desired. Their color 
range is so generous that both in massed plantings and in shoals 
through the herbaceous border all manner of subtle and striking 
combinations can be made. They are a garden investment that 
pays high premiums of beauty. 
The late Leonard Barron wrote: 
Further study of and experiment with the Ideal Darwin Tulips 
merely adds weight to the conviction already expressed; that they 
do form a really ideal group in that splendid family of bulbs. Their 
bright colors, their cheerful bearing and, yes, their real gayety in 
the garden, make them delightfully welcome. 
The Ideal Darwins have, indeed, made my garden much more 
joyous in Tulip time.
