Tulips are more challenging to cross-breed, and it can take several years before the plant bears flowers.
Asif Ali Gohar has been running the family garden
shop in Lahore, Pakistan, for more than a decade. He has recently grown a
new floribunda rose variety named Gohar. The Gohar rose has big leaves,
is long-stemmed, and has a flowering period until late autumn. The
gardener is now scaling the Gohar floribunda's production and is seeking
distribution partners. Other than that, he just started to cross-breed
tulips with the goal to create a new Fosteriana tulip variety.
Asif Ali Gohar said, "Tulips are harder to
cross-breed, and several years for the plant to bear flowers are needed.
I am excited about developing a new tulip variety. Tulips are a symbol
of spring, and they are the most popular spring bulbs. Tulips are easy
to grow and can have a variety of vibrant colors."
