Its name was derived from the Turkish word for turban. The tulip flower.
In the 1500s, the Sultan of Turkey fell deeply in love with the flower. He ordered for the flower to be extensively cultivated to decorate his palace.
In early the years of the 17th century, a botanist from the Netherlands traveled to Turkey. He was fascinated with the palace’s obsession with the tulip flower.
