Breeder Tulips 
(May-flowering) 
These Tulips have gained prominence in the gardens of the real Amateurs, as they produce a 
most artistic effect by their refined flowers, hold on long upright stems with the most unusual color 
shades, ranging from purple to bronze, orange, yellowish and buff. These colors are not to be found 
in the other Late-flowering Tulips, and on account of their enormous size and vigorous growth, 
sometimes the flowers are larger than Darwins. Breeder Tulips are a wonderful addition to the 
garden.
