Kazak Tulips!

Here are some pictures of my Kazak Tulips that I planted in January. I was so excited when I saw them coming up. They are not your "normal" tulip! They have the neatest shape, and such pretty leaves. The coral colored one is a Kaufmann, and the red/orange are Greigii. They were discovered in the Tien Shan Mountains in Kazakhstan that border China and Kyrgyzstan. I discovered them in the grocery store of all places! I had been searching online for weeks last fall, and could not find any to buy. Because I love flowers so much I was obsessed with finding some of these bulbs. Everywhere I went I would check through the tulips to see if they had any that even looked like the native Kazak ones! One day, there they were! I was shocked! Next year I will get more!
