A lowly stone cutter, Farhad, loved the Princess Shirin, and wanted to win her heart. One day Princess Shirin was led into the mountain’s forest by her courtesan and when she saw Farhad and heard his music, she fell in love.

When her father, the Shah heard that his only daughter had fallen for someone beneath her he was not happy. He decreed that Farhad, being a commoner, must complete a task: to dig a canal through the bedrock of the hills. Farhad didn’t blink; he loaded up his spade and headed for the hills. He labored tirelessly for years and he was making real progress. Word reached the Shah that Farhad had almost completed his task. He sent one of the princess’ courtiers to tell Farhad that Shirin was dead. Then, overcome by grief, Farhad used his spade to take his life, and his blood flowed into the canal. When news reached Princess Shirin she ran to the mountains. Upon seeing him, she then took her own life. Where they lay together, their scarlet blood pooled, and each drop formed a tulip. Ensuring their love will live forever.

Tulip is a flower that originated from Anatolia and has been the main crown of the gardens for centuries.

It was the first gift from the Ottoman Empire to the Netherlands in ancient times.

Once upon a time, two wild flowers fell in love with each other. One said to the other: “Let’s bloom in the winter so all the nature will belong to us and you will belong only to me” for it loved the other dearly and didn’t want to share her beauty with the other flowers. So instead of spring, he bloomed in the dead cold of winter, piercing through the blanket of snow, hoping to see his lover. He looked around to see the beautiful colors of his lover but she was nowhere to be seen. Deeply saddened, the flower bent his head and waited for the end of his time. Since then, the flower who kept its lover’s promise by blooming in winter is called “snowdrop”. The other flower that disappointed its lover by blooming in the summer is called “Pansy Flower”.
