Stickers - Red Tulip Blue Sky 2

Because tulips are generally associated with Holland, few realise they originated in an area around Central Asia and China. However, it was Persian growers that began cultivating tulips sometime between the 10th and 12th century. The name, "tulip", comes from the Latin word for turban, ostensibly because Turkish men frequently decorated their turbans with tulips. It was, however, Europeans that took tulips to the Netherlands during the 17th century. Since that time tulips have become a national symbol of Holland. Red tulips can mean, "my perfect lover" or "a reclamation of love". They are more often symbolic of undying love and the belief in true love. In Feng Shui, red tulips in the home can bring fame or increase a person's power to gain fame quickly. They also stand for wealth and it is thought that they bring wealth accompanied by love. This gorgeous bloom, photographed from underneath, reaches to the clear, beautiful blue expanse of sky. This lovely flower is offered on these marvellous stickers, an excellent choice for package decoration, sealing envelopes and scrapbooking. There is also text to be customised to suit your specific purposes.
