BREEDER TULIPS 
Discarded by their originators, the old Dutch gar- 
deners, because they had no stripes or feathers, the 
Breeders were more or less neglected and grawn only 
in some obscure corners, until an appreciation for the 
so-calld ‘“art colors’ awakened. With the revival of 
the taste for bronze, brown and buff tones, attention 
was drawn to these Tulips, which have now become 
the most popular late Tulips. And they deserve their 
popularity, not only for thetr peculiar and odd colors, 
but also for their great lasting qualities. In size and 
height they frequently surpass even the finest Dar- 
wins.
