Hybrid and Giant Breeder Culips 


| 

sturdy, holding their great height with such ease as to cause them to tower above all other 
Tulips in your garden, dominating with their beauty. This great strength causes them to last 
in bloom much longer since they are capable of showing greater resistance to adverse weather 
conditions. 
A field of these Giant Breeder Tulips in bloom is an amazing mass and riot of color—a 
rainbow gone mad. They have been compared with a richly colored Gobelin tapestry and 
the play of sunlight on these rare tints is an unforgettable sight. 
The rare richness of the exotic and almost unbelievable color schemes of the Giant Breeder 
and Hybrid Giant Breeder Tulips will soon cause them to be the talk of your neighborhood, 
creating mixed emotions of surprise, admiration and envy on the part of all who view the 
colorful spectacle of their blooms. For grace, beauty and stately dignity—for richness of 
color—for large, long-lasting blooms, they are unsurpassed.
