EDGY PARROT TULIPS…
ALL IMAGES ARE BEST seen On Black, yours too!
Another new variety to be bought.
The parrot tulips are back, with all the frills, ruffles and curves. It is very much about the jagged edges.
The deeply fringed and ruffled petals of the gorgeous parrot tulip will gradually open right out to form big, bowl-shaped flowers.
Although it is unknown who first brought the tulip to Northwestern Europe, the most widely accepted story is that it was Oghier Ghislain de Busbecq, an ambassador for Emperor Ferdinand I to Suleyman the Magnificent.
According to a letter, he saw "an abundance of flowers everywhere; Narcissus, hyacinths and those in Turkish called Lale, much to our astonishment because it was almost midwinter, a season unfriendly to flowers."
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)
