12ct Tulips Black Parrot Bulbs – Van Zyverden

Product Description

Tulips are the indispensable blooms of the spring garden, as they bring it to life! They are unique in the range of size, shape, and bold color found in almost every color spectrum, that only tulips provide. Tulips are suitable for a wide range of plantings, are excellent in the rock garden, in formal beds, as elegant cut flowers, and for containers. They can be used in nearly any garden design scheme. Flowers are upward facing, with linear to lance-shaped green leaves on the stem. Tulip descriptions can become quite technical, as they are grouped into 15 different divisions, describing the petals, stamens, and leaves in detail. Plant several different varieties of tulips throughout the garden to extend the blooming time.
Parrott tulips are so called for their heavily frilled and scalloped, feathery-edged blooms, which make them truly unique. Very famous almost-black tulip variety, late blooming, and a heirloom dating back to 1937.
