Yemen, what a country ... Haraz mountains, Socotra, Sana'a, Hadramaut, the empty quarter.... a country of stunning, mind altering beauty...and the friendliest of people.

Tulipa clusiana ex 'Tinka' grown from SRGC Seedex 2007.
First flowering and appear to be consistently dwarf with clear yellow and reddish exterior.
Can't be named 'Tinka' as it from seed - but is it distinct enough to name? 'Thylacine'? ;)
cheers

I don't know what you have to groan about, Ashley, when you got to see them in the wild ;D.

Tulipa stapfii is now flowering; numbers increasing nicely from a single bulb planted a few years ago,
