Giant Breeder Culips 
These are the majestic tultps that rival the glowing 
rich colors of Indian Summer — in unusual shades and 
combinations of shades that are never found in any other 
types. 
Rare, rich shades and tints in a glorious pattern of 
autumnal purple and gold, burnished bronze, soft copper, 
lustrous violet, scarlet flamed with gold and orange, and 
varying tints of delicate pastel hues that are too subtly 
blended to describe. Many unusual hues are created by 
an overlay of “bloom” similar to that on grapes. 
An exotic tapestry of rare and beautiful, stimulating 
new colors that will set your garden apart from all others. 
Extra Size Bulbs, 12 cms. or larger. 
BREEDER TULIP DILLENBURG 
Courtesy C. G. Van Tubergen, Ltd. 
Giant Breeder Tultps are famed the world over for 
their strong, heavy stems and majestic bearing; their 
unusual vigor and fascinating colors. The individual 
blossoms are huge and bold compared with most common 
tulips, but perfect in form and proportion. 
Because of their heavy texture and extreme vigor 
they remain in bloom for an amazingly long period of 
time, and withstand adverse weather conditions very well. 
Giant Breeder Tulips are May-flowering, starting in 
the second week of May and continuing to the very end 
of the Tulip season. 
ADMIRAL TROMP. (32 inches high). A beautiful salmon orange-red 
with a rosy flush at the center of each petal, the margin of which 
shades out to a lighter tint. Tall, long lasting flowers. A Van 
Tubergen origination of exceptional merit that is considered one 
of the finest Breeders of recent years. 
3-50c, 6-90c, 12-$1.75, 
25-$3.20, 100-$12.00 
BACCHUS. (30 inches high). A very lovely, rich shade of enchanting 
violet blue frosted over with a grape-like bloom. Seen through a 
mist of rich blue Anchusa myosotidiflora, the effect is a French 
combination of colors. Noble, well proportioned long oval shaped 
flowers on tall stately stems. It’s beautiful tone of purple is 
needed in every well balanced color scheme, and is in great de- 
mand by every discriminating gardener.

CHERBOURG. (30 inches high). One of the finest Breeders, with a 
remarkable blending of golden yellow, flushed terra cotta set off 
by a deeper yellow at the margins of the petals. A huge shapely 
flower on strong, tall stems. 
3-55c, 6-$1.00, 12-$1.95, 
25-$3.60 100-$13.50 
CUNERA. (34 inches high). An exceptionally handsome new variety 
from Van Tubergen. An enormous rich purple flower overlaid 
with a sheen of sculptured bronze, shading to broad margins of 
soft bronze set off by a yellow base. Interior bronze shaded. A 
long lasting flower of great size and beauty. A. M. Haarlem 1937. 
3-50c, 6-90c, 12-$1.75, 25-$3.20, 100-$12.00 
DILLENBERG. (28 inches high). A gorgeous flame colored Tulip 
overlaid with deeper tints in the center of each petal shading to 
bright orange at the edges. A well-shaped flower on tall stems. 
Another of Van Tubergen’s superb introductions. 
3-40c, 6-65c, 12-$1.30, 25-$2.45, 100-$9.00 
DOM PEDRO. (25 inches high). A distinct and elegant shade of 
Morocco coffee brown, shading to buff and old gold at the edges, 
enlivened by a rich yellow base. Inside is of contrasting mahog- 
any. Sweetly scented and long lasting. Highly recommended, 
and the best of the bronze varieties. 
3-50c, 6-90c, 12-$1.75, 
25-$3.20, 100-$12.00 
GEORGE GRAPPE. (36 inches high). A Van Tubergen masterpiece! 
An enormous flower of soft mauve or clear lavender blue with a 
delicate bronze cast, and a spotless clear blue base. One of the 
very tallest Breeders. It is not difficult to think of many early 
flowers of contrasting or harmonizing shades that used with this 
variety would create most artistic pictures in the garden. A great 
favorite with every discriminating gardener.
