Cottage 
Tulips 
A glorious group of Tulips particularly adapted for 
naturalizing. Many of these varieties have been found 
growing about the country houses and cottages in Eng¬ 
land and France for many years, hence the name. They 
are charming in groups in the borders and among shrubs 
and are absolutely hardy. They have stately flowers with 
long, narrow cups, some elongated, with pointed petals 
beautifully reflexed at the edges; many of them sweet 
scented. Plant same way as all late Tulips—5 inches deep 
to the bottom of the bulb and 6 inches apart.
