The tulip is a perennial, bulbous plant with showy flowers in the genus Tulipa, which comprises 109 species^[1] and belongs to the family Liliaceae.^[2] The genus's native range extends from as far west as Southern Europe, North Africa, Anatolia, and Iran to the Northwest of China. The tulip's centre of diversity is in the Pamir, Hindu Kush, and Tien Shan mountains.^[3] A number of species and many hybrid cultivars are grown in gardens, as potted plants, or to display as fresh-cut flowers. Most cultivars of tulip are derived from Tulipa gesneriana.

Tulips are spring-blooming perennials that grow from bulbs. Depending on the species, tulip plants can grow as short as 4 inches (10 cm) or as high as 28 inches (71 cm). The tulip's large flowers usually bloom on scapes or subscapose^{[further explanation needed]} stems that lack bracts. Most tulips produce only one flower per stem, but a few species have up to four flowers. The colorful and attractive, cup-shaped flower has three petals and three sepals, which are often termed tepals because they are nearly identical. These six tepals are often marked near the bases with darker colorings. Tulip flowers come in a wide variety of colors, except pure blue (several tulips with "blue" in the name have a faint violet hue).^[4][5]

The flowers have six distinct, basifixed stamens with filaments shorter than the tepals. Each stigma of the flower has three distinct lobes, and the ovaries are superior with three chambers.^{[further explanation needed]} The tulip's fruit is a capsule with a leathery covering and an ellipsoid to subglobose shape.^{[further explanation needed]} Each capsule contains numerous flat, disc-shaped seeds in two rows per chamber.^[6] These light to dark brown seeds have very thin seed coats and endosperm that does not normally fill the entire seed.^[7]

Tulip stems can have up to a few leaves, with larger species tending to have multiple leaves and smaller species having none. Plants typically have 2 to 6 leaves, with some species having up to 12 leaves.^{[clarification needed]} The tulip's foliage is strap-shaped with a waxy coating and alternately arranged on the stem. These fleshy blades have a light to medium green color and are linear to oblong in shape.^{[clarification needed]} Tulip bulbs usually grow on the ends of stolons, and the bulbs' tunicate (dry and papery) coverings may or may not have hairs.

Although tulips are often associated with The Netherlands, commercial cultivation of the flower began in the Ottoman Empire. The tulip, or lale (from Persian لاله, lâleh) as it is also called in Iran and Turkey, is a flower indigenous to a vast area encompassing parts of Africa, Asia, and Europe. The word tulip, which earlier appeared in English in forms such as tulipa or tulipant, entered the language by way of French tulipe and its obsolete form tulipan or by way of Modern Latin tulīpa, from Ottoman Turkish tülbend ("muslin" or "gauze"), and is ultimately derived from Persian dulband ("turban")
