Tulip (Tulipa) is a genus of single-seeded plants in the lily family (Liliaceae). Tulips were introduced to the western world by the Viennese ambassador to Turkey, Ogier Gisleen van Busbeke, who wrote about the flowers he had seen in Edirne, Turkey, in 1551. He later sent some of its seeds to Austria.[1] The arrival of a cargo of tulip bulbs from Turkey in Antwerp in 1562 marked the beginning of European tulip cultivation.[1] The first documented specimens were planted by the Fleming Carolus Clusius in the Hortus botanicus Leiden, which he ran from 1593. The forest tulip (Tulipa sylvestris) is the only species found in the wild in the Netherlands and became established from the 19th century. Most of the cultivated forms of the tulip are derived from Tulipa gesneriana. Ottoman sultans wore a tulip on their turban as a symbol. The name tulip thus comes from the Persian word "target band"
