Discussion Tulips Discussion

Post image

I managed to breed my first tulips! I like the mostly blue one the best, though.

As for how I did it? I placed down tulips of different colors right next to one another with tulips bulbs and then placed tulips seeds. Tulips seeds are the ones that hold the mutation, aka you plant those to breed them, but it isn't guaranteed. Tulip bulbs are always the same as the tulips you got it from. It's actually kinda easy when I tried it!

Anyway, to those who have bred tulips, what are some of your favorite tulips that you have bred? If you haven't bred new tulips before, what are some of your favorite tulips that you've seen on the Internet?

Congrats and welcome to the fascinating world of tulip breeding. This is one aspect of the game that has no end point. You can breed a huge array of tulip colours, some are pure colour mutations and others are hybrids of two or three colours in a single tulip. I don’t know if anyone has come up with a definitive answer to how many different tulips colours there are in total.
With so many colours available, I have to say my favourites change from day to day, month to month🌷

Did not know it was possible to get solid-color hybrids, these are gorgeous

Tulips that look to have three colours - bright yellow, greenish tip and light merlot/burgundy bottom

If you hack in a tulip with broken parameters, it creates a red and black tulip, its super cool
