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)
