This tutorial will show students how to draw a tulip in full bloom, like the larger flower on the right, and a smaller one that is still growing, like the one on the left. Tulip leaves are also rather distinct in that they are long with a kind of wavy edge. Colors of course, leave all kinds of options. Just be sure to have students press hard with their crayons to get the most vibrant hues possible.Tulips are loved for their bright colors, but they have a background story to them too. Their name originates from the Persian word for turban, as they resemble a turban when in full bloom.Did you know that the color of tulip blossoms also have symbolic meaning? Purple, not surprisingly, is seen as a symbol of royalty. Pink tulips are connected to happiness, self-confidence and positivity. White are sometimes used as a peace offering, and yellow a sense of achievement.Every year in January, the city of Amsterdam celebrates National Tulip Day. On this day, tulip growers build a gigantic tulip garden and people are free to pick a bouquet for themselves at no cost. It marks the official opening of tulip season in the Netherlands.
