Flower Shaped
The Exotic Flower Of Tulip
Tulips are large, showy flowers with six petals. Tulips come in incredible variety of colors, heights, and flower shapes.
A tulip is a flower in the genus Tulipa, comprising about 150 bulbous species, and in the family Liliaceae. Tulips are one of the most popular spring flowers of all time, and the third most popular flowers world-wide next only to the Rose and Chrysanthemum. Tulips come in an incredible variety of colors, heights, and flower shapes. Some Tulips are even fragrant. The native range of the species includes southern Europe, north Africa, and Asia from Anatolia and Iran in the west to northeast of China. Many hybrid cultivars are grown in gardens, used as pot plants or as fresh cut flowers. Most cultivars of tulip are derived from Tulipa gesneriana.
Although tulips are associated with Holland, both the flower and its name originated in the Persian empire. The tulip, or lale (from Persian, laleh) as it is also called in Turkey, is a flower indigenous to Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan and other parts of Central Asia. Although, it is unclear who first brought the flower to northwest Europe, it is the Turks who made tulip known in Europe.
In horticulture, tulips are divided up into fifteen groups mostly based on flower morphology and plant size.
* Single early group – with cup-shaped single flowers, no larger than 8cm across (3 inches). They bloom early to mid season. Growing 15 to 45cm tall.
* Double early group – with fully double flowers, bowl shaped to 8cm across. Plants typically grow from 30-40cm tall.
* Triumph group – single, cup shaped flowers up to 6cm wide. Plants grow 35-60cm tall and bloom mid to late season.
* Darwin hybrid group – single flowers are ovoid in shape and up to 8cm wide. Plants grow 50-70cm tall and bloom mid to late season. This group should not be confused with older Darwin tulips – which belong in the Single Late Group below.
* Single late group – cup or goblet-shaded flowers up to 8cm wide, some plants produce multi-flowering stems. Plants grow 45-75cm tall and bloom late season.
Species Tulips are different from the hybridized garden tulips, seen in gardens world wide, in that they are less widely grown—and known—than the garden hybrids, and are unlikely to ever outsell or even approach their level of popularity. However, more and more species are becoming available each year.
Tulip species are the starting point in the long story of the garden tulip and they are still out there, growing in the wild—in Europe, North Africa, and Asia. They are usually smaller and less bold than the garden hybrids, and extra care may be needed to grow some of them successfully, but they amaze with the intensity of their color and surprise with the size of their flowers. Growing in distant mountain ranges, hidden gorges, and remote meadows are plants that wouldn’t look out of place in the brightest, most flamboyant garden.
