COTTAGE TULIPS 
We venture to say that this type is of great antiquity, having probably originated in Persia where 
some species resembling them in shape are found growing wild today—Tulipa Clusiana among 
them. As far back as 1554 the Austrian Ambassador to the court of the Calif brought with him 
some of their seeds and Tulips became a fascinating hobby with many wealthy Viennese gardeners 
—for the seeds, as well as bulbs, were expensive. 
The term “Cottage” Tulips is of quite recent origin. The fact that they are probably the longest lived 
and most lasting of all Tulips caused many of them to be planted around the country houses and 
cottages of England and France. 
All colors imaginable can be found among them, and most of them have long stems, some of them 
gracefully drooping. They form excellent cut-flower material and are unsurpassed for garden dec- 
oration.
