Tulipa eichleri, commonly known as Eichler tulip or Eichler's tulip, is a species of tulip. It is a bulbous flowering perennial with long green leaves, deep red flowers with a central black blotch, coming from the Caucasus Mountains (between Europe and Asia).
It is thought to be a synonym of Tulipa undulatifolia Boiss. or a synonym of Tulipa undulatifolia var. undulatifolia by some sources.
It is only occasionally cultivated and generally only grown by specialist tulip growers, as it is also used for hybridization purposes.
It is hardy down to -30 °F (≈1 °C). In America, this equates to USDA Zones 4 through 8.
Tulipa eichleri is native to temperate areas of Central Asia.
