PEON Y-FLOWERED TULIP, MOUNT TACOMA 
DARWIN TULIPS 
A vigorous race of self-colored Tulips distinguished by their strong stems 
that carry the blooms well above the foliage, thus adding to their beauty 
in the garden and increasing their value for cutting and indoor decoration. 
They flower simultaneously with the Breeder and Cottage Tulips during 
Apriland May. We offer below the new varieties which show improvement 
in color, height, or in some important respect, over the old varieties. But 
at the same time we retain the best of the old and tried varieties, many of 
which remain the best in their class.

called first-size bulbs that measure only 11 cm. 
COTTAGE TULIPS rrowerinc 
Next to the Darwin Tulips, the most important class is the Cottage, also

color range, fragrance, texture of bloom, fine-shaped flowers and long stems 
are among their good qualities. As a class, the Cottage Tulips will make 
themselves at home for a longer time, even under adverse conditions, than 
any of the other late types,
