Giant Ideal Darwin TULIPS 
Ideal Darwins are superior to many of the older Darwins, the flowers, in many instances, being larger 
and of better substance; the stems longer and stronger. They usually begin to bloom several days before the 
regular Darwins and often last for a longer time. They are truly magnificent, and we can highly recom- 
mend them to you for garden decoration and cutting. 
The Giant Ideal Darwin Tulips offered on this and the next page have been selected from a long 
list as the most outstanding and best of the group. Every variety has been proved on our Fordhook 
Farms trial grounds and we have no hesitancy in commending them to you. We are sure that when 
you grow them, you will quickly recognize their superior qualities. . i
