GIANT DARWIN TULIPS 
The Darwin Tulips are characterized by large cup shaped 
flowers having a squarish base. The stems are strong and 
tall. They are largely self-colored in shades of red, pink, lav- 
ender and purple. There are a few white and yellow varieties, 
but we depend more on the Cottage group for these shades. 
Nowadays there is no very important distinction from a gar- 
dening standpoint between the Darwin group and the Breeders 
and Hybrid (Cottage) tulips. 
The numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4 indicate relative time of flower- 
ing, those numbered 1 being the earliest. The other numbers 
in parentheses denote height.
