Making a bold statement in your borders and containers, Parrot Tulips are among the last to flower (in late spring). Notable and much loved for their large, fringed, cup-shaped flowers, as well as impressive height. On a sunny day, the ruffled flowers will open almost flat, revealing their interior magnificence in its full glory. Collection comprises; Tulip 'Black Parrot' - striking, rich, sumptuous plum-purple flowers which appear to twist and turn as they open, height 50cm; Tulip 'Negrita Parrot' - crown shaped, deep beetroot purple flowerheads with flashes of green veins sit atop dark stems, height 60cm; and Tulip 'Cracker Parrot' - dark pink flowers with edges flushed white and the merest hint of green, height 60cm. Originating from hot, dry habitats, Parrot Tulips prefer to be grown in fertile, sharply drained soil in full sun, with shelter from strong winds. Excessive wet will not be tolerated. Hardy bulbous perennials for you to enjoy for seasons to come.
