Cottage Tulips (Late Flowering Single) 



The Tulips belonging- to this class owe their name to the fact that many of them have been found 

 growing in gardens of country houses and cottages in England and France. They flower long after the 

 other varieties of Tulips are gone, and are unsurpassed for garden decorations and for a succession.

 these showy flowers a matter of a trifling expense. They are excellent bulbs, and will bear handsome blooms. 

 Double and single collections are kept separate. Several hundred bulbs at the quotations below involve less 

 expense than is required to secure a few summer bedding plants, and they are fully as valuable.
