There are great’ many wild species of 
Tulips that are greatly admired by fancth

the newer strains of border varieties. 
Many ot the species are rather small in 
both plant and flower but some have the 
largest and most brilliant blooms of the 
entire genus, with some having several 
flowers to the stem. Seed requires several 
weeks to germinate and should be sown
