Cottage Tulips Henderson's late or may flowering 
Cottage Tulips are so-called because found growing in the old cottage 
gardens of England, Scotland, Ireland and France where they had been 
established for 50 years or more. All are very beautiful, presenting a great 
variety in form and coloring, and havingnone of the stiffness of other tulips. HM^I 
For cutting they are greatly prized on account of their long stems and 
graceful habit. Being extremely hardy they are specially adapted for hardy 
flower borders, where they should be planted in large clumps and masses. 
To aid in making selections for continuity of bloom, etc., the relative time 
of flowering is indicated by the letters E, F, G, H and I. Those marked E 
being the earliest. Those marked I are the latest to bloom. The normal 
height is also given in inches. In planting the bulbs should be placed 5 
inches apart and the bottom of the hulb should be 6 to 7 inches below the 
surface in light soils and 5 to 6 inches deep in heavy soils. If planted too 
shallow some may come blind. The varieties marked * are especially good 
for winter flowering and forcing. Per Per
