COTTAGE TULIPS 
When the Dutch finally recovered from their mania over the brolcten Tulips, their lovely lily-flowered and slender self-colored varieties 
had practically disappeared, but these were later collected from cottage gardens in England and France where they had been cherished 
for generations. Under the name of Cottage Tulips they are again popular, especially since hybridizers have increased the range of their 
brilliant colors. The most graceful of all the hybrid Tulips will be found under this head. Many of them are fragrant. 
Advance. Perhaps the most remarkable of the Cottage type, 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 
than any other Cottage Tulip. $2 per doz., $15 per 100
