Why the Tulip?
The tulip has been a recognized symbol of Parkinsons disease since the 9th World Parkinsons Disease Day Conference in 2005. However, its connection to the disease dates back even furtherto 1980, when Dutch horticulturist J.W.S. Van der Wereld, who had Parkinsons, developed a red and white tulip. He named it the Dr. James Parkinson tulip in honor of the physician who first described the disease in 1817.
