Features of Species or Group: |
| |
This tulip was named for M. Foster, a professor at Cambridge. The flower is especially large-blooming. It is particularly known for its crossings with the Darwins. Fosteriana hybrids are stately plants with heights of 14-16in (35-40cm) and large, brightly coloured flowers. The outer petals are pointed and the inner ones are broader and womewhat blunt. They are found in the intense colours of red, yellow and white, although the reds are more prevalent. |
Features of Genus: |
| |
There are over 100 species of tulips and many hundreds of hybrids. Most modern garden tulips are the result of extensive breeding programmes that began in the late sixteenth century in Europe and are continuing to this day. Tulips were all the rage at that time as more and more species were introduced to Europe from Turkey, Iran and central Asia. Tulip species range in height from 15-60cm (6-24in) but the greatest number of hybrids are probably in the range of 30-40cm (12- 16in). Tulips look their best in mass plantings of one colour but they can, of course, be mixed. They make very good container plants and are delightful cut flowers. Some of the most charming are the dwarf types which do particularly well in rock gardens and are also suitable for containers. Like daffodils, tulips are split into a number of divisions according to their flower form and time of flowering. |
