Is a tulip woody or herbaceous?

Monocots have their flower parts in threes or multiples of three; example the tulip and lily (Lilium ). Dicots have their flower parts in fours (or multiples) or fives (or multiples). Examples of some common dicot flowers include the geranium, snapdragon, and citrus.

Is a tulip woody or herbaceous?
tulip is herbaceous, because it is a monocot. secondary growth doesn't occur in monocots, whereas secondary growth produces cork, which is the woody stem found in dicots
