Did you know that a tulip is not just a tulip? Red roses mean passionate love, yet tulips carry a message all their own.
According to Victorian flower dictionaries–
A tulip is a declaration of love. Peer into the flower’s dark center to see a heart that is burnt to cinders with passion.
Tulips = A Declaration of Passionate Love. Who knew tulips held such a racy secret?
According to Vanessa Diffenbaugh’s character Victoria Jones, the flower’s message has the magic ability to transform our lives. Spring is here tulips are appearing in gardens and grocery stores. Why not bring an armful of passion into your apartment, house, loft or dorm room, tie them with a ribbon, and stand them in a glass vase? Or present a single bloom to that special someone as a coded declaration of love. Who knows what might happen?

As a child, tulip cups seemed like the dwellings of fairies. Perhaps this wasn’t too far off; in ancient Turkey tulips were a symbol of paradise on earth. What better place for a pair of garden sprites to snuggle on a hot, lazy afternoon?
