Description
Tulipa pulchella is dwarf tulip native to Iran and Turkey. It has a bulb 1-2 cm diameter, which produces a flowering stem up to 20 cm tall. The leaves are glaucous-green, 10-15 cm long. The flowers are reddish-purple, with six tepals 3 cm long and 1.5 cm broad.
Cultivation
It was introduced to Europe in the early 1800s, where a small number of cultivars are grown as ornamental plants in gardens, notably 'Persian Pearl'.

I have this little tulip in my alpine garden for several years now and every year there appear to be more of them. They bloom for just a very short period of time. One week or so.
