Tulipa dasystemon, Regel (Orithya dasystemon, Regel). "Belongs to the Orithya section of the genus, which includes species that are nearly all of small stature and possess comparatively small fls. It is a charming plant, growing about 6 in. high. The fls. have yellow segms. edged with white. When fully open in sunny weather a group produces a brilliant effect, and it is one of those small bulbous plants that are most appropriate for the rock-garden planted between other low-growing plants. The bulbs may be left undisturbed in the ground; a group planted amongst Alyssum spinosum in the rock- garden at Kew flowered quite as freely the second year as the first."—W. I. in G.C. III. 52:206 (with fig.). Baker describes it as st. 1-fld. and not more than 3 or 4 in. long: lvs. 2, glaucous, lanceolate: perianth above 1 in. long, funnel-shaped, bright yellow inside, the outer segms. oblanceolate and green-tinged on outside. E. Turkestan. CH
