Cottage and Hybrid Tulips Bloom 



The origin of Cottage Tulips has been lost — they are so old. But they have come to us chiefly from the 

 humble cottage gardens of the British Isles. They are usually recognized by their long and narrow petals 

 and their slender but strong stems. In shape of bloom they vary. Some are egg-shaped, some vase-shaped, 

 some lily-flowered. They have a wide range of colors, but in the orange-scarlets and the yellows they are 

 especially outstanding. Some of the Cottage Tuhps are fragrant. The Hybrid Tulips are crosses iDetween 

 the Cottage, Breeder, and Darwin Tuhps.
