This tulip is now blooming in my zone 7 Maryland, USA garden in an unprotected cold frame. And it is always among the first tulips to bloom here. It's a favorite here because of its great scent.

How, or is, this tulip related to the one many of us grew years ago under the name Tulipa biflora? That plant had much smaller flowers which were not fragrant (to me anyway) and were more star-shaped.

I've noticed that this tulip under our conditions is apparently very sensitive to summer moisture - until I figured this out, I lost two acquisitions of this one.

The first of the Tulipa humilis forms is also open now.

Beats me, Jim  ::) Not too many similarities to the simple eyes of this gardener  ???

Looks like a little Tulipa turkestanica. Is it related with T. turkestanica?
