| Hello, I am a new member to the site. I love your podcasts and plant database. I am in zone 6b so gardening can be a challenge. I have a bulb that I am not sure of. I didn't plant them but they come up every year. I think it is some type of hybrid tulip but I am not sure what kind. Can you help? Thank you. Jeff |

| Think its this: Tulipa humilis Species Tulip (Tulipa humilis var. violacea 'Black Base') Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. |

| I think it looks more like Red Emperor. Compare the pictures on the data base. Paul Smith Pleasant Grove, Utah |

| Hi Paul, Thank you for the information. The distinctive yellow band around the black base indicate my species is indeed the Red Emperor or (Madame Lefeber). Thank you for your help. Jeff |
