None known [1] Tulipa alberti, or Albert's tulip, is a species of flowering plant in the family Liliaceae.

[5][8] The rare yellow forms of both T. greigii and T. alberti can have a crimson blotch on the inner side of the petal.

[7] In the stamen, it has 2.9 cm long stamens,[2] small yellow,[6] filaments 1.4 cm long and anthers similar in length to the filaments, which are dark purple in shade,[6] or sometimes yellow in the pale coloured forms.

[7][2] Natural cytokinin-like substances were found in ethanol extracts from the bulbs.

[10] The genus name (of Tulipa) comes the Latinized version of the Turkish name tulbend meaning a turban.
