BREEDER TULIPS 
TOP-SIZED BULBS ONLY 
These are the old Dutch self-colored Tulips, neglected for many years, which modern taste for unusual colors has called 
into prominence once more. Nature’s happiest color-combinations of purple and bronze, gray and lilac, brown and orange, 
are revealed to us in this group. The flowers are mostly large, of perfect form, and are borne on tall, strong stems.
