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 outstand- 
ing. Some of the Cottage 
Tulips are fragrant. The 
Hybrid Tulips are crosses 
between the Cottage, 
Breeder, and Darwin Tulips.
