Warmer spring temperatures and a significant lack of snowfall are negatively affecting the tulip growth in Kashmir, particularly at the Indira Gandhi Memorial Tulip Garden, which houses around 1.7 million tulips. Experts attribute these unusual weather conditions to climate change, as the area has experienced an 80% deficit in rain and snow. Consequently, with average temperatures rising by 5 to 8 degrees Celsius, many tulips are wilting, complicating the garden's effort to attract visitors despite careful breeding and imported bulbs.
