Photographer's Note

I saw an amazing scene in New York, these bright yellow tulips looked so unreal yet attractive.

About Tulips:

Tulipa commonly called Tulip is a genus of about 100 species of bulbous flowering plants in the family Liliaceae. The native range of the species include southern Europe, north Africa, and Asia from Anatolia and Iran in the east to northeast of China. The centre of diversity of the genus is in the Pamir and Hindu Kush mountains and the steppes of Kazakhstan. A number of species and many hybrid cultivars are grown in gardens, used as pot plants or as fresh cut flowers. Tulips as many people think donot come from Holland, but are native to central asian region - Kazakhastan, Afghanistan, Iran, & Kashmir in India.
