With many hybrid cultivars grown in gardens, the tulip is a very well known spring flower that appears in countless colours.

Was für eine besonders schöne Tulpe zeigst du hier!
Herrlich ist ihr Innenleben mit den etwas kleineren Blütenblättern! Der Farbverlauf der Petalen ist wunderbar und das Licht lässt die Farben so wundervoll zur Geltung kommen!
LG!
