Botanical or Species Tulips and Their Hybrids 
"The Indispensable Miniature Tulips” for Permanent Planting 
The following collection of Botanical Tulips includes a great number of beautiful 
and interesting varieties, which show a bewildering variation of size and shape of flow- 
ers, structure of leaves, habits, etc. The only thing they have in common Is the fact 
that they grow wild in some part of the world—Asia Minor, Central Asia, Greece, the 
Mediterranean. Cultivation has not modifted them and they may be planted in the 
rock garden between creeping plants or in colonies in small, warm nooks, a situation 
where the larger-flowered garden Tulips would be out of place. Blooming period April 1 
to late May.
