Triumph Tulips 
A race of Tulips with most outstanding characteristics and merits. They are exceedingly 
valuable for the Flower-Garden, in borders etc. on account of their strong tall stems and vigorous 
habit. Most pleasing shades of the self-colors, bi-colors, edges, flushes, stripes and margines, which 
will not be found in other types of Tulips and this stresses the beauty of this section. Triumph 
Tulips flower immediately after the Mendel Tulips and are a valuable addition to obtain a con- 
tinuous color display of Tulips. Some varieties will force steadily, but the substance and the size of 
the flowers are superior. 
Origin: This group is a result of hybridising Single Early Tulips with Darwin, Breeder or 
Cottage Tulips. The seedlings were raised and first introduced by Messrs. Zocher & Co. at Haarlem 
in 1918. Five years later, they were officially registered as Triumph Tulips.
