| Tulip species, coming as they do from southern Europe and Asia, should be planted in dry, sunny locations. 
The following collection of Tulip Species or Botanical Tulips include a great number of beautiful and interesting 
varieties, which show a bewildering variation of size and shape of flowers, structure of the leaves, habits, etc., and
