There"s something to be said about the allure of a bed of colourful tulips. Originating from Central Asia, these bulbous plants are beloved worldwide, from the gardens of Mount Vernon to the bustling streets of Istanbul, Türkiye. But tulips are more than just decorative flowers; they are culturally significant, too. They represent love, life, beauty and passion in various traditions. Tulips are often depicted in art as a symbol of rebirth or youth.
