The romantic legend of tulips.


As we all know, the rose is a symbol of love, but in Holland, there is also a romantic love legend about tulips.In ancient Europe, there was a beautiful princess living in a castle, and three handsome knights fell in love with her at the same time.


These three knights began to find ways to woo the princess.


One of them gave her a crown, one gave her a sword, and the other gave her gold. The princess was very worried, did not know how to choose, because the three men are so good, so she had to ask the god of flowers for help.


The god of flowers then transformed her into a tulip, the crown into a bud, the sword into a leaf, and the gold into a bulb, thus accepting the love of three knights at the same time. The tulip also became the embodiment of love.


As the crown represents incomparable status, and the sword is a symbol of power, and the possession of gold is the possession of wealth, so in ancient Europe only noble and famous people are qualified to plant tulips.


A unique tulip.


It is said that a shoemaker produced a rare "black" tulip on a small plantation. When word got out, a group of growers from other countries visited him and convinced him to sell them the flower. Finally, the cobbler sold his treasure to them at a high price. To his surprise, one of the buyers immediately dropped the black tulip to the ground and stomped it into a puddle of mud with his foot. The shoemaker was stunned.


The buyers, however, easily explained that they too had bred a black tulip and would give anything to ensure that their flower was unique.


In poetry, the tulip is seen as a symbol of victory and beauty, and it can also represent grace and elegance. The tulip is also a symbol of victory and beauty, as well as representing pure friendship and eternal blessings.


Send a tulip to the love of your life and tell them how much you love them.
