Jim:

We found T. saxatilis (aka bakeri) in Crete a few years ago, and in the garden, it is spreading nicely, but has yet to size up enough to flower.

Dear Friends,

This is the time of year I am reminded about the above topic, mostly du/e to T. sylvestris. I wonder if anyone else has experience - not just catalog hype - with stoloniferous tulips.

I think these are all stoloniferous

T. sylvestris
T. whitttallii
T. clusiana
T. bakeri ( according to google)

Does anyone have experience with any other species that spread out to form patches of bulbs?

Thanks. Jim W.
