The Renaissance of the 
Breeder Tulips 
is the outcome of my efforts to find new colors to 
make your garden “the garden of personality.” 
The rich browns, bronzes and purples, or the 
superb combinations of these shades in one 
flower, have rapidly made the Breeders the 
most desired of all Tulips. 
The Blue Book of Bulbs 
contains the most complete list of Breeder Tulips 
in the world. Some of them are so scarce that 
it will not be possible to furnish them unless you 
tell me before June 25 to reserve bulbs for you. 
Write me for a copy of my Blue Book.
