Tulips Will Add Colour to the Flower Market

Tulips, first grown in Sreepur, Gazipur, in 2020, are now cultivated in four places in Bangladesh, from Jashore's Godkhali to Tetulia in Panchagarh.

Nature and human initiative move together. In Bangladesh, winters are growing colder in season, though climate change is delaying the cold a little. People's winter enthusiasm has begun to keep pace with cold countries, and the tulip is one example.

From surprise to prospect


When tulips first bloomed at Dakshinkhanda in Sreepur, Gazipur, in 2020, it was a wonder. Two years later, it is a growing prospect. The country's soil and nature have become ready for tulips, and people are clearly captivated by their beauty.

Four locations


This year tulips have spread to four places. Besides Sreepur, flower grower Ismail has created a garden of 5,000 tulips at Godkhali, Jashore, the country's flower capital; a businessman in Rajshahi has planted a hobby garden of 1,000 tulips on his farm; and eight women in Tetulia, Panchagarh, are growing 40,000 tulips.
