A most interesting group of wild Tulip species native of the mountain slopes and valleys of 
Central Asia and Asia Minor—lovely odd shapes, many with reflexed petals and curiously twisted, 
spotted, and reflexed foliage. They do well in the rock-garden where their individual beauty stands 
out most prominently. Here they thrive and increase if left in the ground year in and year out. 
Plant them in groups of six to twelve among the rocks in fairly deep, well-drained pockets.
