“LILY -FLOWERED TULIPS 
The Tulips offered under this heading have been kept by 
themselves because of their distinct lily-like flowers. 
Lily-flowered Tulips bloom at the same time as the Cottage 
Tulips and are best used where a light, airy and graceful 
effect 1s desired. As flowers for cutting, they surpass other 
Tulips because they are so much more graceful. Don’t miss 
planting a few this year.
