The cost of one tulip is 100 soms
The price for tulips is fixed at 100 soms each, regardless of color: whether red, yellow, or white — the cost is the same.Sellers note: "The bulbs were brought from Holland and grown here in a greenhouse. These flowers can delight you for 15 days. If you buy them today, they will definitely last until March 8. Even those who bought them yesterday will be able to enjoy them. The main thing is to remember to change the water and keep them in a cool place."
You can buy them individually or in bulk, where the price will be lower.
According to the organizers, "You can take just one, but when buying in large quantities, the price decreases. For example, if you order 5,000 units, the price will be 70 soms each. We are surprised by the influx of customers: even in bad weather, more than a thousand people come to us daily."
