COTTAGE TULIPS 
This class of late or May-flowering tulips 
comprises a miscellaneous catch-all group of 
old fashioned tulips that have been grown for 
generations in the cottage gardens of England 
and Europe. They have been much improved 
in recent years, through selection and hybridi¬ 
zation, and are now rivaling the Darwins in 
popularity. They are tall growing and then- 
petals are more open than the Darwins. In 
forcing care must be taken to bring them on 
slowly. Prices are for No. 1 top size.
