In bloom for only a few weeks, they have passionate fans who love them despite—or perhaps because of—their short season. They can live to be 100 years, old and are one of the easiest flowers to grow, with many different shapes and colors available, and a delicate scent.

Tulips:

These humble bulbs have been celebrated, stolen, carried across oceans; at times they have been considered as precious as rubies.
