Description
Lovely budding red springtime tulips. They are one of the earliest bulbs to bloom each spring.
The meaning of tulips is generally perfect love . Like many flowers, different colors of tulips also often carry their own significance. Red tulips are most strongly associated with true love, while purple symbolizes royalty.
Netherlands and some parts of Europe, the red tulip means being on fire with love. This again sprung from a 16th century legend in Persia. It is said that the Sultan of Persia showed his affection and love through the use of crimson tulips. He said that this shows his burning flame of love. This is probably because the first red tulips are characterized as having a tinged black mark at the bottom of each petal. They said that the black mark in the crimson tulips showed the charred sultans heart.
In fengshui, having a red tulip in your home is said to bring wealth together with love. Its also said that it helps to bring a person rise to fame and recognition. As for wedding traditions, using red tulips signifies the love of the newly wed for each other.
The Shape: When the red tulip flower is in an upright position, it has a cup shape figure but its star shaped when laid flat.
