Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Magenta pink and apricot gold are shades that are rarely found blended in a single flower; Pink Star shines with both. This peony form tulip is terrific for stitching together warm and cool shades in a garden. A bit shorter than many others, and infinitely useful for breezy gardens, Pink Star has strong stems and great petal substance (thick, not thin and wimpy.)
