I think hubby is right, it's a tulip.

### JaiPlantGoddess comentó el 2026-02-19

Okay thank you. Why do you think so

#### Molly respondió el 2026-02-19

Tulips have soft petals in many colors, and snake plants have stiff sword shaped, vertical leaves with patterns. Snake plants are also stemless, their leaves emerge directly from the soil.growing from thick horizontal underground rhizomes. You have a beautiful tulip, would love to see what it looks like once it blooms. I definitely can see how it can be mistaken as a snake plant.

Looks like Tulip to me. I have a big snake plant \& it doesn’t look like that! And it’s how the stem comes out of the dirt in one stem. Snake plants don’t do that

I can see why you think snake plant because of the shape and color but pretty sure that’s a tulip plant and you’re gonna get tulip flowers! Snake plant would have pretty hard leaves. This looks more floppy like tulips.

Yup! Tulips. I bet they will be pretty!

#### JaiPlantGoddess respondió el 2026-02-19

What kind of tulip

### JaiPlantGoddess comentó el 2026-02-19

What kind of tulip you think it is

#### Dondoo52 respondió el 2026-02-19

It could be any of the variegated tulips. They all look different. Verona Design looks like a peony almost while a T Praetans looks more traditional. They are a mystery if you don’t know which variety.

#### JaiPlantGoddess respondió el 2026-02-19
