It takes five to seven years to grow tulips from seed. The beautiful varigated colors of tulips are the result of a virus attack while the bulbs are in storage. This is frequently done deliberately. • • • ' The tulip has been known in America at least since 1640, when the Dutch settled on Manhattan Island. Tulip seeds and bulbs j have been used as food. The English experimented with them during the 17th I Century, but as the bulbs I were so expensive, their use in the kitchen was short-lived. The Dtfteh used | them as food when starving I under the German occupa- | tion during World War II. I However. Hollanders i didn't find them very | palatable.

The tulip plant has only one disease — Tulip Fire (Botrytis tulipae). It isn't j too prevalent but once started, it spreads like fire. It usually appears as a result of a warm wet spring. Initial symptoms inelude spotting on blooms and yellow shriveling leaf tips. It can be controlled if ' caught early.
