To welcome the approaching spring, Latvijas Pasts has released a new stamp depicting a tulip as part of the popular and eye-catching Flowers series. The new stamp Tulip has been designed by artist Lilija Dinere.
Tulips are plants belonging to the lily family. They got their name because of their shape: the word tulip is derived from the Persian word toliban meaning turban, a type of headdress. Tulip is a genus of about 100 species, of which only one species – the wild tulip – grows in the wild in Latvia.
