Breeder Tulips are very 
similar in habit to the Dar¬ 
wins, and flower at the same 
time. Their chief character¬ 
istic is their immense blooms, 
borne on strong, stiff stems, many of 
them longer than the most gigantic 
Darwins. The revival of the taste for 
art colors has made these Tulips, at one 
time very popular in England, strong 
favorites with American enthusiasts, who find in their bronze, 
buff, and brown shades excellent material for contrasting with 
the light and bright colors of the Darwins. 
They require the same cultural treatment as the Darwins 
ABD-EL-KADIR. Dull bronze-yellow, shading to light bronze at 
edge of petals; inside bronze-brown, with olive-green base; good- 
sized flower. Height 26 inches. 60 cts. for 10; $5.00 per 100 
ADMIRAL TROMP. One of the newer Breeder Tulips which will

good substance and the blooms are large. Height 30 inches. 
$1.60 for 10; $15.00 per 100
