Breeder Tulips 
Breeders are the one- or two-toned forms of the old striped 
Florist Tulips; originally named “Mother” Tulips, the selection 
and purification, as well as the introduction under the name 
of Breeder Tulips was the life work of just one Dutch grower. 
They are easily distinguished from the Darwins by iheir yellow 
centers and the typical stardust on the outside of their petals. 
They bloom at the same time as the Darwin Tulips in May. 
The rich and artistic blendings of purple and old gold, 
bronze and terra cotta, brown and violet, buff and maroon, 
have made these Breeders immensely popular.
