Giant Darwin Tulips 
The chief characteristics of Giant Darwin Tulips are the 
attractively shaped flowers, tall stems, and lovely colors— 
scarlet, crimson, rose, pink, violet, purple, slaty blue, blue- 
violet, lavender, white, golden yellow, etc. They are wonder- 
ful for planting in masses in beds, borders or in groups of 
twelve or more here and there among the hardy perennials, 
and what could be lovelier for cutting? 
If the widest assortment of colors is desired in late tulips, 
the Giant Darwin, Ideal Darwin, Lily Flowered, Breeder and 
Cottage varieties should be included in your plantings, as 
each class has its own range of colors, and all usually bloom 
during May. The height given for each variety is average 
and some variation is natural in different localities and 
seasons. We offer a choice selection of better varieties.
