Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Sighted growing in a dry Western garden, Tangerine Beauty caught our attention initially for the bright tomato red blooms and then for the fabulous foliage. Low growing, the leaves on these clumping tulips were wildly wavy and energetic. The fact that these are botanical tulips, rather than hybrids, adds to their appeal because it means they'll come back for many springs, not just a few. If you have a hard to manage sunny dry patch, may we suggest Tangerine Beauty?
