Ideal Darwin Tulip, 
Scotch Lassie (See page 48) 
Adoration Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.00, 100 $13.75 
A splendid improvement on the old favorite Princess Elizabeth. Strong, 
large flower of exceptional substance. The color is a clear brilliant pink 
with lighter edges and white base. Height 29 inches. 
Annie Speelman Six $1.40, Doz. $2.50, 25 $4.50, 100 $16.00 
A tremendous white Tulip with white base and anthers. The flower is 
oval-shaped and of remarkable texture. A beautiful garden Tulip of 
great substance. Will last from two to three weeks, when cut the flower 
does not open too wide when placed in a warm room. Straight, stiff 
stem. Height 30 inches. 
Arabian Night (New) Six $1.75, Doz. $3.00, 25 $5.50, 100 $20.00 
Large, perfectly shaped flowers of heavy texture and substance. The 
color is a most unusual Indian red with darker sheen. No such color 
has heretofore been available among the Darwin Tulips nor the flower 
substance. Stems are 28 inches high. Here is a magnificent dark red 
Tulip without an equal. We consider it the finest of the dark reds in 
commerce today. Until last year it was only available in limited quan- 
tities but we are now happy to announce a good supply. 
Blue Eagle (Black Eagle) Six $1.20, Doz. $1.90, 25 $3.40, 100 $12.25 
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. 
A glorious Tulip on a 29-inch stem. Plant it together with Ideal Darwin 
Glacier, for stunning effect. :

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 Jdeal group. Niphetos, probably 
the handsomest shapéd Tulip grown, is an exquisite 
Breitner (New) Six $1.50, Doz. $2.75, 25 $5.00, 100, $18.00 
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. $2.25, 25 $4.00, 100 $13.50 
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 
future and the loveliest pink Tulip in existence. Height 30 inches. 
Charles Needham Six $1.10, Doz. $1.80, 25 $3.25, 100 $11.50 
For simple, unadulterated emphasis, this blood-red Darwin has no supe- 
rior. It is a color so dominant that it is best used in combination with 
pure white or pure yellow. A superb variety for contrast planting. Flow- 
ers of excellent size on stiff, straight stems. Height 28 inches. 
City of Haarlem Six $1.35, Doz. $2.25, 25 $4.00, 100 $13.75 
A reliable, handsome Darwin of great substance and of a fiery cardinal- 
red. The dark violet base of this Tulip, outlined in white, gives it a 
striking effect when open. It is admirably at home among all the lighter 
colSieg spring flowers, such as the hardy Alyssum citrinum. Height 31 
inches. 
Clara Butt Six $1.00, Doz. $1.55, 25 $2.90, 100 $10.50 
Lovely old time pure pink Tulip that should be in quantity in every 
garden. In some lights elusive soft salmon suffusions in this fine flower 
add to the interest of the beautiful blossoms. Height 30 inches. 
Clematis (New) Six $1.30, Doz. $2.15, 25 $3.75, 100 $13.00 
This handsome flower is a clear rosy lilac, somewhat lighter at the edges. 
The pure white base gives the flower a sparkling cleanliness of color. 
Excellent variety for the garden, far better than Rev. H. Ewbank. Height 
inches. 
Conan Doyle (New) Six $2.25, Doz. $4.00, 25 $7.00, 100 $25.00 
Color is best described as brilliant cardinal-red; base of bloom is black 
surrounded with white rim. Grows about 28 inches tall. Flower sub- 
stance is outstandingly good, stem rigid and strong. Makes a brilliant 
display because of its bright, shiny, sparkling color. One of the fine 
new ones.
