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 England 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 are sweet-scented. Plant 
same way as all late Tulips—5 inches deep to the bottom of the bulb and 
6 inches apart. 
ADVANCE. The most entrancing and perhaps the most remarkable of the 
Cottage type, Advance is the result of a cross between Gesneriana spathulata 
and the Botanical Tulip Greigi. A giant, fiery red with a purplish bloom on 
the outside and a blue inner base. When in full bloom it resembles the Oriental 
Poppy. The flower is borne on a tall, erect, 30-inch stem, and lasts longer

green. $2.25 per doz., $16 per 100
