Name
Chinese
The name tulip was not originally used to refer to modern flowers, but to curcuma aromatica. The root of the plant is given the name, as it extracts yellow dye and smells. The chinese poet lee baek wrote, “lan mau tulips, jade bowls of amber light”, in which “true tulips” refer to tulips in wine, not plants themselves. It was not until 1917 that chinese scholars formally named modern libertarian tulips under the name “tulips”, a name that has been used to date。

Gesneriana was added to honour the austrian botanist conrad guthnerNrad gessner, also translated from gisna, gave the first scientific description of the tulip in 1559。
