THE DARWINS 
Characterized by their tall, erect stems, glob- 
ular flowers and bright uniform color, the 
Darwins are the best known of the late, long- 
stemmed tulips. Whether in large, formal 
plantings or informal groups, interplanted 
perhaps with low growing perennials, or used 
as cut flowers, they are a beautiful sight— 
and long lasting, too. Best about middle of 
May.
