History and Types of Tulip Flower
The Tulip was initially a wild flower, growing in Central Asia. It was first cultivated by the Turks as early as 1000 AD. The flower was introduced in Western Europe and the Netherlands in the 17th century by Carolus Clusius, a famous biologist from Vienna. In the beginning of the 17th century, the tulip was starting to be used as a garden decoration in addition to its medicinal use. It soon gained major popularity as a trading product, especially in Holland. The interest in the flower was huge and bulbs sold for unbelievably high prices.
Tulips are one of the first varieties of flowers to bloom as spring takes over from winter. Easy to recognize, tulip hybrids are available in an enormous range of shapes, sizes, colours, and textures. They bloom from mid to late spring, but different varieties have slightly different times for blooming. We have a wide collection of tulips at www.flowers24hours.com.

Known for producing calming and soothing sensations in anyone around them, tulips can make a nice present for almost any occasion.
