Plant hunters have discovered a new and unusual species of tulip during an expedition to Kyrgyzstan.
DNA testing at a Cambridge University laboratory has established it was "something completely different". Tulipa toktogulica was found by scientists from the university's botanic garden, Fauna and Flora International (FFI) and local teams. Cambridge Plant Sciences postgraduate student Brett Wilson was on the expedition and said the discovery was "super exciting".
