Tulipa orphanidea

From a Norman Stevens collection, Turkey.

This was planted out in the garden where it increased & flowered regularly for many years. However, in recent times it began to dwindle alarmingly and a couple of years ago I rescued the few remaining bulbs & put them in a large pot which is where they are now.

That's a lovely T.orphanidea Gerry. I did a search for T.goulimyi but they were all red flowered.

Thanks Simon - it is my favourite tulip.
Have a look at:

They call this tulip T. orphanidea but given it is on Mt Parnon I guess this is what Grey-Wilson & Mathew would call T. goulimyi. They say it is very close to T. orphanidea apart from having more leaves & some  difference in the bulb tunic.

This little beauty just opened in the garden today.  About the same size as T. humilis, with 2-3 buds per stem.  Can anyone offer a name?

Thanks again Gerry. We were very close to the Parnonas Mountains. the pics on the link look very similar to the plants we saw, but the flowers look more cup-shaped in the pic. However we only saw 1 plant in flower, as the rest were still in bud, so it isn't fair to base any diagnosis on this one. The main thing is that we saw lots of leaves on individual plants and these were quite slender and grassy, like the ones in the link pic. So I guess we'll go with T.goulimyi.

Mark,

is Little Princess a hybrid of T. whittalii?  It has a strong resemblence to Derek's plant.

Luc,
your thoughts are not alien to me  ;D ;)

Jamie,
T. clusiana is beautiful.
"Little Princess" is a hybrid of T. hageri (color variant of T. orphanidea) with T. aucheriana.
T. whittallii is a tetraploid form of T. orphanidea.

Today some "Ladies" unwraped ::)
