Lily-Flowering Tulips 
(May-flowering) 
Unsurpassed for elegance and charm, the varieties of this section are most graceful and highly distinct. 
Beautifully reflexed and pointed petals form flowers of fascinating beauty which are borne on tall 
wiry stems, rendering them extremely useful for cutting and table decoration. Lily-flowering Tulips 
are a handsome contribution to the garden and give their refined display in May. Plant in groups of 
twelve in order to obtain a more beautiful effect. 
Origin: this race is a result of crossing the old retroflexa (1830) with Darwin Tulips. The hybrids were 
first exhibited by Messrs. E. H. Krelage & Son of Haarlem, Holland in 1923. Retroflexa possesses the 
elegant recurved petals and is still listed in our catalogue under this section.
