The most striking feature of the wild tulip is its brilliant yellow flowers. These flowers consist of six sharply pointed petals measuring approximately 2 to 3 inches (5.08 to 7.62 cm). The petals are arranged around a cluster of sticks, which are usually the same shade yellow as the rest of the flower. When a wild tulip flower opens in the middle to late spring-is pointed petals resemble a six-sided star. This stem has a dark green color. The height of the base from base to flourish usually measures between 9 and 15 inches (22,86 and 38.1 cm).
The stem of each wild tulip is lined with narrow blades in the shape of a blade that can be as high or even higher than its stem and flowers. These leaves are the same dark green color as a stem. This green shade is an attractive contrast with bright yellow flowers of the plant, which can contribute to its popularity in domestic and public gardens.
wild tulips are relatively easy to plant and take care of them. During the autumn months, bulbs should be planted and approximately 3 inches (7.62 cm) should be placed below the soil. Until the environment is not too dry, the bulbs do not require further watering. Once the plants began to break through the soil - usually at the end of winter or Early spring - gardeners should ensure that they get regular moisture. Bulbs usually continue to produce flowers for three years.
It should be noted that after planting a wild tulip may be quite difficult to remove.
