DARWIN TULIPS ---REGALE AND MADONNA LILIES 
— MAY 1, 1942 — 
WHERE AND HOW GROWN — 
Our tulip bulbs are grown in 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 
ae favorable weather our bulbs will give you splendid flowers next Spring. This guarantee applies to Medium size 
ulbs also. 
MEDIUM SIZE TULIP BULBS — 
It has been our experience that medium size tulip bulbs, when planted out of doors, will produce as large flowers and are 
as sure bloomers as the large size bulbs. Hence we place the same guarantee on them. Should we be out of the large size 
we will substitute a larger count of the medium bulbs unless you advise to the contrary. We suggest early orders because 
the demand is heavy.—J. H.

Lily Situation 
Like many other things the supply of lilies is materially affected by the present state of war. In former years 
most of our lilies have been imported from Holland, France and Japan. 
These imports are now of course completely out. Hence only a small amount of homegrown stock is available. 
Increased cost of labor and other overhead items has increased the cost of production. Hence we expect higher 
prices later in the season, All Lily Bulbs offered by us are home grown in the State of Illinois. 
REGALE LILIES --- The most popular of all American Lilies 
The most popular of all American Lilies. Large, white and very fragrant. This lily is hardy in most climates including 
latitude of Illinois and states farther north. The greatest danger of frost is in the Spring after they start growth and 
are up; then, sometimes, 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.
