Tulip Bulbs
Tulip bulbs are spring-blooming bulbous perennials known for their wide range of vibrant colors and cup-shaped flowers, highly prized in gardens and floral arrangements.
What are Tulip Bulbs
Tulip Bulbs are one of the most popular perennial flowers grown throughout the world today. Each one starts as a bulb. The root itself contains all of the genetic information, such as the size and color of the flower itself.
The root does not grow long, woody above-ground roots like other types of flowering vegetation. Instead, the roots sprout below the root after it is planted. Healthy tulips can grow season after season, making them one of the more consistent and vibrant types of flowers to plant in a lawn or garden.
What Does a Tulip Bulbs Look Like
At first glance, the root looks rather unassuming. In fact, it often looks more like an onion or shallot root than a bulb for colorful and vibrant flowers.
Most of them are about one to two inches in size and have distinct layers. They also have flat bottoms, called basal plates, from which the roots of the flower grow. They also have growing points, or tops, from which the flower itself sprouts.
A root ranges in color from light brown to beige. It has an outer protective skin called a tunic.
