BEAUTY BROUGHT TO ITS 
Darwin ano New 
The demand for these Tulips by our customers has 
increased each year by leaps and bounds. Lovely, 
gay and sparkling colors added to the fact that they 
have a very long period of bloom, is responsible for 
their increasing popularity. 
Experts have been quick to see the many new 
qualities and virtues of the IDEAL DARWIN TULIPS. 
In the pink shades, varieties such as The Peach, 
Caroline Testout and Adoration are outstanding for 
their soft and lovely tints, as well as ruggedness of 
bloom. Yellows heretofore unknown in Darwin Tulips 
are now found in the Ideal group. Niphetos, probably 
the handsomest shaped Tulip grown, is an_exquisite 
Blue Eagle (Black Eagle) Six $1.25, Doz. $2.00, 25 $3.50, 100 $12.50 
The form and habit of this variety are perfect. A Tulip of no mean 
| qualities and of rare beauty. For three years in our trial garden it has 
been greatly admired. The cup-shaped flower is of great size and of the 
richest and most brilliant intense deep purple which shines when the sun 
strikes it. The anthers are pitch-black and the base of deepest blue.

Glacier, for stunning effect. 
Breitner (New) Six $1.75, Doz. $3.25, 25 $5.75, 100 $22.00 
Center of outside petals black-red, outside margin dark scarlet-red, 
inside fiery scarlet, base black with narrow white margin. This variety 
produces a most striking effect; in fact, there is no other Tulip like it 
grown. Rather late flowering. For a deep, dark red effect it cannot be 
improved upon. The stem is rigid, the flower long lasting. It is one of 
the finest new varieties. Height 25 inches. 
Caroline Testout Six $1.35, Doz. $2.30, 25 $4.20, 100 $15.00 
We named this variety after the well known Rose, Caroline Testout. The 
color of this Tulip is even more beautiful; of perfect shape, it has ex- 
ceptional lasting qualities; a soft, glistening pure pink with a large, 
white base. Should be used for the show garden. A Tulip with a great
