Description
"The Delicate Tulip" came from a beautiful tulip garden. It's delicate petals are strong, but yet, still fragile. The beautiful colors in this garden were so varied....pastel pinks, bright pinks, corals, and gold and yellow. We can buy tulip bulbs in virtually all colors, including a purple so deep that it looks black. And by planting a selection of varieties of this perennial, we can enjoy their beauty from early spring through early summer.
Tulips, or known by its botanical name of Tulipa, do best in areas with dry summers and cold winters. The brightly colored, upright flowers may be single or double, and vary in shape from simple cups, bowls, and goblets to more complex forms. They are excellent in beds and borders; many types are good for forcing into bloom indoors, and most are excellent for cut flowers.
Although tulips are a perennial, many gardeners treat them as annuals, to be planted anew each year. If you dig up a tulip bulb in midsummer, it's not the same bulb you planted last fall. It's her daughter. Even while the tulip is blossoming, the bulb is dividing for the next generation.
Blooming in early spring, the tulips like part to full sun and sandy soil. And they are loved by everyone! What a beautiful gift from God...The Delicate Tulip. In 17th-century Holland, the new tulip was such the rage and fashion that a handful of bulbs was worth about $44,000.
