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