    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Tulips from the 1700s are exceedingly rare. To last that long, they have to be both wonderful and tough _ like 'Purple Crown', a raggedy double tulip of dusky, purplish crimson that's also called 'The Moor'. We like to imagine a crystal vase of it sitting by Beethoven as he wrote one of his dark, somber movements. It was grown way back then, so that really could have happened! Last offered in 2005, Double Early, 10-12", zones 4b-7a(7bWC)
