Breeder Tulips 
(May-flowering) 
These majestic Tulips have gained important prominence in the gardens of real amateurs, as they 
produce a most artistic effect by their refined flowers, which are held on heavy upright stems. Their 
fascinating colours are rich shades and tints in glorious autumnal purple and gold, and bronze orange, 
yellowish, soft copper and combinations of such colours. These colours which rival the glorious rich tints 
of Indian Summer, are not to be found in other May-flowering Tulips, and on account of their enormous 
size and vigorous growth, yet perfect in form and proportion, Breeder Tulips are a wonderful addition 
to the garden.
