What makes the tulip so desired? The vibrant colors, the elegant shape? In the language of flowers, red tulips symbolize the perfect lover and are a declaration of love. A bouquet of red tulips makes a bold statement, classic yet not cliché.
Tulips have never been a cheap flower. In the 1600s, tulips were a sign of wealth and power. A single bulb could be sold dozen of times before it was ever ready to be taken from the earth. Tulip mania swept the Netherlands and the Dutch spent nearly one hundred years vying for beautiful variegated blooms. The Dutch tulip frenzy resulted in the cultivation of many of the tulips that we recognize today. Then as the tulip mania subsided in the Netherlands, in Great Britain, the English caught the tulip fever and sought to buy the flower and plant it in their fantastic gardens.
These days, tulips are no longer flowers for only the elite but they have lost none of their majesty. It's possible to get these sought-after blooms quite cheap.
