B Tulips are beautiful flowers which were originally grown in Turkey. They were introduced into Europe in the 1500’s. In the Netherlands (荷兰), they became very popular. Tulips became expensive flowers as they took many years to grow from a seed to flower. Today, in Holland, tulips are highly valued and grown commercially for export. Tulip plants are grown from bulbs(球茎) or seeds. Both the male and female parts are formed. As the plant grows, thick pointed leaves developed. They provided food for the growing plants. The tulip flower will start to bloom in early spring. When the weather is cold or rainy, the tulip flowers will close up. On the other hand, when the weather is sunny, the flowers will bloom. Throughout the world, many varieties of tulips are grown. They bloom in different colors: red, yellow, white, and pink. The cup-shaped and bell-shaped tulips are the most common ones. There are different reasons why tulips are grown. They are grown for pleasure in parks and gardens. They are also raised for the bulbs that are sold to people who store the bulbs to be grown in their gardens. These beautiful flowers also attract insects which help to pollinate(授花粉) the flowers.
