Breck SELECTED DARWIN TULIPS 
ANY years ago, when this classification was determined upon, there undoubtedly were certain characteristics which 
were common to, or exclusive with, Darwin Tulips. Now changes have taken place. Countless crosses have been 
made. The blood of other groups has been introduced, and there is almost no feature left which is peculiar to this group 
alone. We can, therefore, no longer explain just why a “Darwin” is a “Darwin.” 
The color-range Is from white through blush, pink, salmon, rose, shades of red, maroon, purple to black, as well as 
yellow, and the loveliest shades of lavender and lilac. They grow from 2 to 3 feet in height and bloom in late May. 
Darwin Tulips may be effectively grouped in front of shrubs and evergreens or planted in beds and perennial borders. 
Plant the bulbs 5 to 6 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart during October or November. Cover with a light mulch of 
some such material as Salt Marsh Hay after the first hard freeze.
