This early bloomer produces multiple star-shaped flowers per stem (often 3–8), white in colour with a striking yellow heart. The grey-green petals often have a subtle pink or purple tinge on the outside. The flowers open wide in the sun and seem to dance almost floating above the foliage. With a height of only 25 cm, this is an ideal variety for borders or between perennials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTulipa turkestanica\u003c\/em\u003e blooms early in the spring and is very popular with bees and other pollinators.
