COTTAGE TULIPS 



Cottage Tulips arc so-called because many of them were found srowinK in the old cottage gardens of England, Scotland, Ireland and Franco where they 

 had been established for .50 years or more. .All are very beautiful, presenting a great variety in form and coloring, and having none of the stiffness of other 

 tulips. For cvittitig they arc greatly prized on account of their long stem.s and graceful habit. Being extremely hardy they are specially adapted for hardy 

 flower bordt-rs. where they should be planted in large clump.s and masses. To aid in makirig selections for continuity of bloom, etc., the relative time of 

 flowering is" indicated by the letters E. F, G. II 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 bulb sliould be (i to 7 inches below the surface in light 

 soils and rt to ti inches deep in hea\'y soils. If planted too shallow some may come blind.
