BREEDER TULIPS 
The Breeder Tulips are noted for their deep 
r ich coloring and artistic blending of shades, espe¬ 
cially of purple, gold, bronze, maroon, buff, etc. 
Their size of flower and length of stem often 
exceed the Darwins. Many of them are very 
long lasting in the garden and offer unusual pos¬ 
sibilities for cutting.
