DARWIN TULIPS---REGAL LILIES 
JUNE 1, 1941 
As you know until last year we imported most of our tulip bulbs from Holland. The United States normally uses 100,000,000 large 
tulip bulbs annually. Total production in the U. S. this year will probably not exceed 25,000,000 large bulbs. 
There appears to be no likelyhood of securing tulip bulbs from Holland this season. Hence the demand for tulips is going to 
far exceed the supply. There is no prospect of much, if any, improvement in this situation this year. 
WHERE AND HOW GROWN 
Our tulip bulbs are grown on rich Illinois soil where, during the winter, the temperature is frequently at zero or below. Our bulbs go 
through such winters without any special protection and come up fine and strong in the Spring producing fine flowers. Such a climate 
gives them a strength and toughness which will insure good flowers for you next spring. Tulips grown in warmer climates sometimes 
fail to withstand our severe winters, with disappointing results to purchasers. 
GUARANTEE 
All stock is guaranteed true to name and free of insect pests and disease. We further guarantee that with proper care our bulbs will 
give you splendid flowers next Spring. 
DIGGING TIME PRICES 
We will start digging our bulbs within a few days and we are now making you special prices at this time in order to get this business 
out of the way of our Fall gladiolus business. Any Fall prices we may make will be higher than those quoted herein. 
Our customers were much pleased with the results from tulip bulbs purchased from us last Fall and some have already placed 
orders from the new crop. We have materially increased our planting this season.

a freeze will injure them. This can be avoided by mulching the ground after it freezes in winter. This will delay the early spring 
growth. Plant smaller bulbs 4 inches deep and larger 6 inches.
