Cottage Tulips 
Cottage or Mayflowering Tulips are 
generally the most permanent type for 
garden use. They have chiefly oblong 
shaped flowers with narrow base, al- 
though there are Cottage Tulips strongly 
resembling the Darwins. Some varieties 
have reflexed petals. The stems are long 
and slender, but generally stiff. Besides 
a wide range of exquisite colors, there 
are many very good yellow sorts, a color 
rather rare in other late classes.
