Breeders, formerly listed among the Cottage Tulips, form a distinct 
| class by themselves, being “unbroken” forms of the old time ‘'Florist'’ 
RB ee at ft Tulips. 
Discarded by their originators, the old Dutch gardeners, because they 
had no stripes or feathers, they were more or less neglected and grown 
BE L ps only in some obscure corners, until a taste for the so-called ‘‘art colors” 
awakened, and with the revival of the taste for bronze, brown and buff 
tones, the attention was drawn to these 
Tulips, which have now become the 
most popular late Tulips. 
And they deserve their popularity. 
Not only for their peculiar and odd col- 
ors, but also for their great lasting qual- 
ities. In size and height they frequently 
surpass even the finest Darwins.
