1. Although tulips are associated with Holland, both the flower and its name originated in the Persian empire.
2. Botrytis tulipae is a major fungal disease affecting tulips, causing cell death leading to rotten plants. Other pathogens include Anthracnose, bacterial soft rot, blight caused by Sclerotium rolfsii, bulb nematodes, other rots including blue molds, black molds and mushy rot.
3. They are not as easy to photograph as you might think, even do they do not tend to move much. But I gave it a shot (!) because I got the most beautiful tulips from my friend Al the other week. Here they are.
see what I am saying? Might have to pick my dear friend Meaghan's big brain on this issue tomorrow... Thanks and goodnight world! I'm taking my bronchitis to bed.
Tycker att korten är fina men jag förstår vad du menar med att det inte är så lätt som det ser ut bara för att dom är stila. Tycker bäst om kort 2 och 4...
