Tulipa schrenkii Hort. (Kurt Vickery tells me it is a Dutch clone, not the true species. Nice though.)

Nice tulips from everybody 8)

Can you identify please my tulip? - It belongs to T. turkistanica / bifloriformis complex.

This clone usually flowers with one single flower per stem. It is stoloniferous and extreme robust.
No sign of losses or damages by black frost or long cold winters.
I never lift them for summer dormancy.
Best wishes
Armin

Yes it is nice.
I have 3-year old seedlings from an exchange that are far too green and luxuriant to be right :(

Could yours be turkestanica Armin? 
By the way, your T. clusiana are looking lovely here this year 8)

Me and some of my colleagues also supposed that, until we observed some similar specimen in the wild. In Crimea there are types resembling the Dutch  one in colouration among ordinary red and yellow ones.

In my greenhouses only earliest tulips are blooming now.
The first two pictures are from Tulipa biflora collected last spring in Kazahstan.
This Tulipa dasystemon was originally collected by my friend Arnis Seisums in Uzbekistan.
Tulipa dasystemonoides I got from Arnis, too.
And as last Tulipa turkestanica from Oudzhasai collected together with Arnis in Uzbekistan.

Ashley,
I have 2 different clones. The one shown I've bought under the name T. biflora which it is not.
I thought of T. turkestanica (of commerce) all the times - but comparing with Janis image it does not much either.
Also T. bifloriformis seems not matching. :-\
Best wishes
