Information about yellow tulip flower?

Specifically, i want to know the scientific name and the meaning behind "the yellow tulip". I've tried wikipedia and a bunch of google searches, but I just can't seem to find the information I want about them.

Any flower gardeners out there that can help me out?

Reply:i'm pretty darn sure the scientific name for it is: tulipa fosteriana. which is "golden Emperor" aka "Golden purissima" aka "yellow emperor"



the meaning: it's evolved from "hopeless love" to "cheerful thoughts and sunshine"
Reply:Tulipa x hybrida or Tulipa sp. If you mean just basic tulips, their ancestry is so mixied up , and been domesticated so long (1500's, at least), that there's no species, as we normally think of it.
