Panorama. Deep orange-red or terra-cotta, shaded 

 with mahogany — a real panorama of color. Large 

 goblet-shaped flower on strong stems. 



Breeder Tulips are so named because they are the 

 "Mother bulbs" from which were developed the 

 striped and vari-colored varieties by the Holland 

 hybridizers. In this class you can get the apricot, 

 bronze, and old-gold colors not to be had in the Giant 

 Darwins. You can plant these Tulips with the 

 Darwins for they have the same type of growth, 

 magnificent, firm, large flowers on long, strong 

 stems, and they bloom at the same time. The 

 lovely bronze tones in the Breeder Tulips cannot 

 be duplicated in any other popular flower, and they 

 harmonize beautiful^ with the more brilliant colors 

 of the Darwins.
