Okay, this is just what I think, its just my opinion ( but i have looked up the ruffled tulip):
Tulips symbolise love, that particular tulip symbolises perfect love. There's a Turkish legend which says that a prince called Fernande fell in love with a maid, and when he discovers that she had been killed, he is grief ridden and he rides his horse off a cliff. For every droplet of blood that was spilled, a red tulip appeared from the surface of the sea. This links to Bella, she does jump off a cliff, for different reasons but all linked to the same idea of not being able to live without your love. Also, the Tulip is ruffled, which could also symbolise Bella as being messed up. That's what i think the ruffled tulip on the cover of New Moon symbolises and why its there.

Theres no reason for the flower on the cover Stephanie Meyer had no say in the cover it was just deemed appropriate
if you look at the cover of new moon that is a white and red ruffled parrot tulip _____________________________________________ New Moon, a YA novel by Stephenie Meyer has a that tulip you are refering to.
I think you mean new moon. If you mean new moon its a ruffled tulip.
The flower on Stephenie Meyer's New Moon is a ruffled tulip... according to Stephenie Meyer, she did not design the cover the publishers designed it that they thought would sell..
Actually, the ruffled tulip is on the cover of New Moon, the second book in the Twilight Saga. As it were, Stephenie Meyer says on her website that she had nothing to do with the cover for New Moon and she herself does not know what it's supposed to mean.
on the book cover of new moon is a ruffled tulip though on the special edition one it has Jacob, Bella and edward on the cover and on the cover of the movie it also has Jacob, Bella and edward
First things first it's not a rose but a ruffled tulip. And it symbolizes the love with Jacob and Bella, but the messed of 'ruffled'- just like the ruffled tulip the ruffled part stands for the messed up love between Edward abd Bells.
Here is what I think. As you can see, the flower is wilting, but still alive. This is like Edward and Bella's relationship. Even though it went through a rough patch, it was and forever will be still very alive.
it is a ruffled tulip to symbolyse Bella and the blood to symbolise edward both look beautifull together as if they were meant to be together
It is a ruffled tulip and Stephenie Meyer didn't have anything to do with creating this cover so on her website StephenieMeyer.com she states that even she doesn't know what it means.
All of the other overs have a meaning but this one. Stephenie Meyer stated on her website that the ruffled tulip has nothing to do with the book.
"Q. What kind of flower is that on the cover, and what does it mean? A. That is a ruffled tulip. As for the meaning... If you've read the Twilight FAQ, you know that the apple cover had a lot of meaning for me, and I was an active part of the covering process. However, that experience is more the exception than the rule in the publishing world. Something to keep in mind if you intend to embark on a career as a writer: lots of things you might expect to be under your control are not. Covers, for example. Those are mostly up to the publisher and the marketing and sales departments. So I don't know what the tulip means-I didn't have anything to do with this one." This was taken directly from the FAQ section of New Moon on Stephenie Meyer's website at www.stepheniemeyer.com.Okay, this is just what I think, its just my opinion ( but i have looked up the ruffled tulip):Tulips symbolise love, that particular tulip symbolises perfect love.
