The Legend of Scarlet Tulips
This legend was written down in the Upper Don... When the Whites executed Podtyolkov’s Red Guard detachment and covered the grave with damp earth. And on this land the next day beautiful scarlet tulips grew. These flowers were so bright that they seemed to be burning... The ataman sent his esauls to trample down the flowers, and in the morning they looked - they had grown again. Now the tulips were brighter than before. Then the ataman ordered the horses to be led there so that they, too, would trample the flowers, but all in vain. These are our unshakable tulips. And we also call them lazoriki...
