    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Introduced just before the American Revolution, this voluptuous double became one of the most popular tulips of the next 150 years. Its billowing red petals are edged with a mellow, butterscotch yellow, making it colorful enough for Victorian carpet-bedding yet lovely enough that it was once a leading cut-flower at London's stylish Covent Garden market. Today it's exceptionally rare, and we're thrilled to be able to offer it once again! Double Early, 10-12", zones 4a-7a(8bWC)
