In 1982, David Mabberley in Taxon Vol.31 on pages 65-73, William Roxburgh's 'Botanical description of a new species of Swietenia (Mahogany)' and other overlooked binomials in 36 vascular plant families. Cited it as Tulipa persica.[18]

Then in 1984, P.H. Davis, in 'Flora of Turkey and the East Aegean Islands' Vol.8 on pages 1-632. Cited it as Tulipa undulatifolia.[18]

In 2013, D. Everett, in his book 'The genus Tulipa Tulips of the world' on pages 1-380 by Kew publishing. Cited it as Tulipa undulatifolia var. undulatifolia.[18]

The endosperm of the tulip has been studied.[21]

In June 1932, it was given the RHS Award of Garden Merit.[23]
