Cottage and Hybrid Tulips 
(All May-flowering) 
Cottage Tulips are so named because they have mostly been found in old Cottage 
Gardens of Great Britain and France, where they have been growing for a great 
number of years. They are distinct in habit, embrace many beautiful colors, and are 
excellent for borders, where they should be freely planted in large clumps or masses. 
They may also be naturalized in grass, wild Gardens, etc. where during the month 
of May they present a gorgeous display.
