'TLe Bleedel lulibS 
Present day Breeder Tulips are the direct descendents of the old original tulips that were such favorites in Holland centuries ago, 
having been bred from, and developed from this old sturdy type. 
They have retained and even increased their early robustness greatly, and with this there has been created a remarkable variety of 
color tones that no pen can describe. 
Predominating color tones are rich purples, violets and golds, with buff, brown, bronze, lavender, and blendings of these into har¬ 
monious combinations. Many exquisite pastel colors and hues may also be included. 
The flowering period is approximately the same as the Darwins, and the two classes combine perfectly to give color effects of 
great beauty in the garden. 
The figure following the variety name indicates the relative time of flowering.
