DUTCH BREEDER TULIPS 
Similar to the Darwins in their tall, strong growth, and 
flowering at the same time. They produce immense bloom 
on long, stiff stems, and in some instances are larger than 
the Darwins. Their artistic colors make them great favor- 
ites with those who desire to contrast their bronze, terra- 
cotta, and buff shadings with the lighter colored sorts of 
the Darwins. They make a fine effect in hardy borders, and 
when used as a cut-flower last a long while in water.
