Template:Italic title Template:Taxobox Tulipa tarda (late tulip, tarda tulip) is a perennial growing from a bulb. It belongs to the section biflores. It has a leathery tunic that is glabrous on the inside.[1] It has up to seven linear green leaves that can be up to 20 cm long. The stem is between 4 and 20 cm long. The yellow flowers have white tips, anthers and stamen are yellow.[2] Tulipa tarda is native to central Asia, growing in rocky subalpine meadows in the Tien Shan.[3] It was confused with Tulipa dasystemon for a long time, and only scientifically described in 1933 by Otto Stapf.[4]
The plant blooms in late April and early May in the Northern Hemisphere.[2] The plant was accorded the RHS AGM in 1993.
