Overall 
Nelis Giant May- 
The constant interbreeding of Darwin, Cottage and Breeder 
Tulips has made the classification of each variety so confusing 
that we are listing them all in one catagory, called May-flowering. 
Since the modern Giant May-flowering Tulips contain the blood 
of all the three preceding crosses in unknown proportions, it 
seems scientifically meaningless to use the old classifications. 
The term May-flowering is based on our Michigan climate, in 
southern locations the blooming time will be earlier. In our 1955 
— listing we eliminated varieties which we consider 
: to be surpassed by later introductions.
