Species Tulip (Tulipa turkestanica): Multi-Flowered Wild Tulip

Tulipa turkestanica is a charming species tulip native to Central Asia. A Liliaceae family member, each bulb produces multiple stems (up to 12), each bearing a starry, white flower with a yellow base and gray-green exterior, in early spring.

Growing 8 to 10 inches tall, it naturalizes well in well-drained soil and full sun. The gray-green foliage is attractively twisted. A delightful, early-blooming wild tulip for rock gardens, borders, or naturalized drifts.
