    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Reputed to be a "black" tulip Queen of the Night is actually a deep wine purple, the floral version of a delightful merlot. Plant this tulip where the light plays across the petals early or late in the day for greatest benefit. Excellent planted with pinks for contrast; [tulip] 'Light and Dreamy 'or 'Ollioules' partner very nicely.
