About Tulip Fanaovan-jiro

Tulip dia fanaovan-jiro (candlestick) vita amin'ny tanimanga natao hametrahana labozia manitra mahazatra. Ny endriny dia nalaina avy amin'ny bikan'ny voninkazo Tulip. Ny elanelana eo amin'ny raviny (petals) dia mamela ny afokasy voarehitra hamaky mora, ka afaka mampirehitra ny labozia mora foana. Ny halehiben'ny fanaovan-jiro dia 55 amin'ny 55 amin'ny 70 milimetatra. Rehefa may ny labozia, dia miendrika taratra ao anatin'ny savoka mitsonika ilay lelafo kely, sady miely ny hanitra malefaka. Ny tanjon'ny Tulip dia ny hanatsotra ny fampirehetana labozia sy hanohana ny toe-piainana milamina ao an-trano, mba hialan-tsasatra sy hisaintsainana.
