...about "Queen of Sheba", have others had good luck in warm winter moist summer regions? This is a most impressive tulip. I never dreamed I could be growing a large hybrid tulip here in "Hotlanta".

All of them are grown in strong light but the foliage never receives direct sunlight. After flowers they are beheaded. As for Tulipa cretica I have grown it for 12 years from wild collected bulbs and it has never flowered.
