Tulips are cool because they used to be traded as a commodity in Holland for centuries. Now there is a big flower market there and they have auctions with tulips; it's just a huge industry in Holland and people love them. Here, they don't last very long but they are super special. They have this sweet thing where they grow to the light and they move and change forms. Sometimes tulips will change color, very nicely.
