Hortus Bulborum Museum Garden

Nevertheless errors occurred I'll continue to glut this page with more tulip images

You may have wondered why still no red T. greigii was shown...

Here some unusual beauties with very large flowers.
T. greigii Fire of Love - unbelieveable colored leaves makes this already a stunner without a flower. The red flower sits on a short stem - introduced 2004.
T. greigii Graceful - a suitable name to this beautiful tulip from 1965.
T. greigii Karimata - this season not as large as 2 years before but still a cracker. From 1982.
T. greigii Quicksilver - from 1960. Resembles Karimata but has additional red blotches inside flower head.

here some more images...

T. praecox: has the thickest stem of all tulips - certainly a good choice for places with strong winds
T. praestans: nice multiflowered tulip with bicolored leaves - Bloemlust 1995, Red Sun & Shogun introduced 2000
T. stapfii: nice contrast - already in culture since 1934
T. tschimganica: 2 forms red and yellow

You have almost reached the end when you read this

For the small size tulip lovers I show the differences between T. humilis 'Zephyr' and T. kurdica (2 flower forms). Not easy to distinguish.

If you like to visit Hortus Bulborum usual mof April is the best time.

South and North Holland still have many interesting places to visit...
