Floral Design with Cara: Tulips - A Sign of Spring
By Cara Ewald on March 28, 2014 from Floral Design with Cara
In this first post, we will discuss our favorite spring flower, the tulip. Tulips, with their long curvy stems can be elegant -- unless you use your favorite wide-mouthed container. There are about 75 different varieties of tulips. Tulips are spring-blooming bulbs that can range between 4 and 24 inches in height. Tulip cultivation began in Persia around the 10th century with hybridization of wild flowers from different parts of the region. Persians favored tulips over other flowers for their size and their vigorous growth.
