Breeder Tulips 
These Late or May-Flowering Tulips are also called “seifs”, or “self¬ 
flowers”, because of their bloom being of one solid natural color, except for the 
base of the petals. They comprise the “unbroken” forms of the old Florist 
Tulips. The flowers are of dull neutral shades of red and yellow, brown and 
orange, lilac, rose and violet, while their inside coloring is beautiful and brightly 
glowing. They are of vigorous growth and enormous size, equalling in sub¬ 
stance and structure the Darwin Tulips. They are not uncommonly called the 
“Art Tulips” because of their “art shades” coloring. Planted together with 
Darwin and Cottage Tulips, a most artistic effect will be obtained. Those 
varieties of the Breeders suitable for forcing should be forced very slowly only. 
The varieties listed below comprise those which in our opinion will give the 
best assurance of pleasure and satisfaction. The Parcel Lots can be commended 
to those who are not acquainted with varieties.
