It was a pleasant surprise to see this flower on the rockery this morning. We only planted them last year and I didn't think that the bulbs looked very good quality. I was probably right given that only one out of about 30 bulbs had flowered.
The whole plant is about 5 inches (12cm) tall and this flower is about 1 inch (2.5cm) long. They are native to the UK but I have never seen one growing in the wild.
"tulip face down" is the local name of frittiari in here.. this is such a beautiful flower.. I love spring bulbs.. they are like little trumpets announcing beautiful weather's arrival...
