BREEDER TULIPS 
The Breeders are a race of tall, handsome Tulips, generally of subdued 
color, including many fine purples, bronzes, dull yellows, browns, old rose,

them in a bright corner in the garden where they will recerve the sunshine 
especially in the morning and late afternoon. The flowers are very large, 
carried on tall, strong stems. May-blooming.
