IN RED AND WHITE 
RED DARWINS 
CHARLES NEEDHAM. Certainly this is one of the finest of all the red tulips. 
The color is enchanting—clear intense vermilion. Large cup-shaped flowers on 
strong stems of jade green. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.50, 100 for $11.25. 
CITY OF HAARLEM. A fine reliable cardinal red tulip. Large cup-shaped flowers 
with blue base and white ring. Strong stem and good substance. Beautiful when 
carpeted with white violas or arabis. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.50, 100 for $11.25. 
ECLIPSE. We consider this the best of the deep red tulips and one of the finest 
in any color. Very large flowers of glowing deep crimson that last unusually well. 
A tall, strong growing tulip. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.50, 100 for $11.25. 
FARNCOMBE SANDERS. This old variety is still a great favorite. Large flower of 
perfect shape colored bright rose-scarlet with white base. It is splendid for mass 
effects against evergreens. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.40, 100 for $10.50. 
GLORIA SWANSON. A huge cup-shaped flower on an exceptionally tall strong 
stem. The color is rich crimson red with blue base. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.40, 100 
for $10.50. 
MARGAUX. An exhibition variety that produces very large oval-shaped flowers 
distinct in color from any other tulip—deep wine red, shaded light wine-red at the 
edges. 30-inch stems. 3 for 45c, 12 for $1.50, 100 for $11.25. 
PRIDE OF HAARLEM. The demand for this old variety continues strong in spite 
of the introduction of dozens of new red tulips. The flowers are larger than most 
and the stems unusually tall. The color is rosy-carmine. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.40, 100 
for $10.50. 
SCARLET LEADER. One of the most desirable of the bright scarlet Darwins. A 
flower of large size that attracts immediate attention. It would be especially gay 
and bright if planted with one of our superb white Darwins. 3 for 45c, 12 for $1.50, 
100 for $11.25. 
WHITE DARWINS 
ANNIE SPEELMAN. A new white tulip of transcendent beauty. The blossoms are 
oval shaped and do not open too widely in the warmth. Even the base and anthers 
are white. The straight strong stem is 30 inches high. 3 for 45c, 12 for $1.70. 
GLACIER (Wildlust). Exceptionally large pure white tulip—the base and anthers 
are white. The oval shaped flowers last unusually well. 3 for 50c, 12 for $1.80, 
100 for $13.50. 
MOUNT EREBUS. We tried a lot of white tulips this year and in our opinion this 
is the best of all. The flowers are very large—as much as four inches long—and 
the stems unusually tall and strong. Cream anthers. 3 for 45c, 12 for $1.60, 
100 for $12.00. 
MRS. GRULLEMANS. A lovely pure white tulip with white center and sulphur 
anthers. Strong stem of medium height. The flowers have exceptional keeping 
quality. 3 for 45c, 12 for $1.60. 
WHITE GIANT. A giant pure white tulip with dark purple anthers. The flowers 
are cup-shaped of heavy substance, the stems are tall and strong and it would be 
a splendid variety to plant with one of the bright red Darwins. 3 for 40c, 12 for 
$1.50, 100 for $11.25. 
ZWANENBURG. One of the older varieties but still one of the most satisfactory. 
It is early flowering, large and tall. Black anthers. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.40, 100 for 
$10.50. 
ZWANENBURG 


WHITE COTTAGE TULIPS 
ALBINO. A splendid pure white tulip of 
great size. Exquisite for planting in 
clumps in the perennial border. It flowers 
very early and because of the heavy sub- 
stantial flower stays in bloom a long 
time. Unusually strong medium height 
stems. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.45, 100 for 
$10.85. 
CARRARA. Beautifully rounded blossoms 
of the purest white on stems that are not 
too stiff. One of the most graceful of tu- 
lips and very popular with gardeners 
everywhere. 3 for 40c, 12 for $1.40, 100 
for $10.50. 
WHITE SAIL (Mendel Tulip). Because of 
its time of flowering this variety might 
well be placed with the Single Early Tu- 
lips as it is very early. It is one of the 
best and easiest tulips to grow in pots. 
The buds are decidedly yellowish but the 
flower becomes pure white as it matures. 
3 for 40c, 12 for $1.40. 

CITY OF HAARLEM 
MIXED DARWIN TULIPS 
An excellent mixture made from 
a great many varieties in a wide 
range of blending colors — red, 
pink, lavender, white, yellow, 
etc. Very desirable where plant- 
ings of tall stemmed, bright col- 
ored flowers are wanted. Top 
size bulbs, 12 for $1.25, 100 for 
$9.35. First size bulbs, about 414 
inches around, 12 for $1.00, 100 
for $7.50. 

I want to tell you how proud I was 
Jast spring when my (rather your) 
bulbs were blooming. As a gardener 
I’m a rank amateur, but my flowers 
outshone many of those of veteran gar- 
deners here. So it must be the quality 
of your bulbs.
