Breeder Tulips 
Breeders are the unbroken or self-colored forms of the old Florist 
Tulips; they have large flowers on robust stems and are easily dis- 
tinguished from the Darwin Tulips by their yellow centers and the 
typical haze on the outside of the petals. They flower at the same 
time as the Darwin and Cottage Tulips, during the month of May. 
The rich and artistic blending of purple and old gold, bronze and 
terra cotta, brown and violet, buff and maroon, have made these 
Breeders immensely popular.
