Inverted tulips, popularly known as ‘crying bride’ or ‘flower of sadness’, have started to bloom generally in the eastern region. Inverted tulips, which bloom as the weather gets warmer, attract great attention from nature lovers and photographers. Journalist Ferhat Yiğit, who went to report on the flower, which can live for 20 days a year and is under protection, was shocked by what he saw yesterday. Ferhat Yiğit, who saw that many flowers were stabbed on the stem by an unidentified person or persons, although a fine of 387 thousand 141 TL was imposed on those who plucked, damaged or broke them, said, “We came here to make news. It is a very beautiful view, but as you can see, the upside-down tulips here are “They cut us. There are traces of a knife. This person or people need to be identified and fined. Our nature needs to be protected. I appeal to our people, please do not harm our nature.”
