Here is my favorite botanical tulip - T. neustruvae - short, good colour and persistent - (sorry Luit, - this seems to be the same type as you showed and for which I asked you, these plants came up much later).

The other one is Tulipa aucheriana.

Tulipa clusiana 'Lady Jane'.

I love the delicate rose blush on the outside of the petals of Tulipa clusiana 'Lady Jane'.  Viewed from above the shape has a starlike quality as you gaze into the centre. I had a round tulip bed designed to be viewed this way and and loved looking down in to it from the window above but I never managed to find the tulip again - it was a Kaufmannia tulip which looked similar to this one except for the leaves. :'( I was sad to lose it

Thomas,
a rarely seen old cultivar. How tall is it and do you have a source?

Armin, you are right - Luit told me the same!

Your 'flowering' Tulipa syvestris are extraordinary!

More tulips in the new Tulip bed- some sorting needed as they were obviously mixed up by the voles.
Tulipa fosteriana 'Red Lighthouse'?
Tulipa x vvedenskyi 'Form'?
Tulipa xvvedenskyi ?
Tulips x vvedenskyi 'Swing'?
Thanks Janis - any idea which form it is?

Thomas,

Ruby,
it is app. 25 cm tall, growing in the same pot for several years without lifting and feeding. Admittedly, it would deserve better treatment. I received it with other tulip bulbs from Hortus Bulborum in 2002. It was possible to order a mix of ten cultivars, but was a surprise, which ones one would get. I never ordered again, so I do not know, how they manage orders nowadays.

Your T. sylvestris look fabulous. For 15 years they are spreading and increasing in my garden, but never produced a flower ...

Here comes another gem I received from Hortus Bulborum: 'Cerise gris de lin', an early single from 1860.

Some Tulips are blooming with me now - mostly dwarfs from T. bifloriformis/turkestanica group - haven't time to sort them out.
Today first flower of T. regelii opened. Almost no one seed from excellent seed crop of 2007 germinated in 2008 and none in 2009, from v4very moderate crop of 2008 almost all seeds germinate.
This wild T. praestans bulb was originally collected in 1982 and it is first time during 26 years with 2 flowers on stem and no one offset during those years. By longevity it is surpassed only by one original T. fosteriana bulbs, collected in 1979 and no one offset, too.
There some time ago was my Tulipa berkariense Morning Star pictured on forum - it isn't Morning Star. I never offered it for export trade. Here the true picture of this beauty.
