First in the Tubs. Tulipa humilis, Alborz Lowly Tulip, Hortus Botanicus, Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Each Spring, the Hortus here puts out an array of tubs planted with tulip bulbs. This year the first flowers to sprout from the green are Alborz Lowly Tulips, which originally hail from northern Iran and the surrounding area. This Tulip was introduced to Europe in the middle of the nineteenth century and first flowered in England in 1844.
