Description
'Apricot Parrot' has the unmistakable delicately fringed petals of Parrot tulip varieties, but it's perhaps one of the most unique when it comes to colouring. The creamy apricot-pink petals can variously be tinged with orange, green pink-magenta or yellow 'flames', with each individual flower likely to be different.
The flower head opens out as the plant matures, further revealing its rich colours.
With a slightly scented fragrance, these tulips are a very popular choice for vases or bouquets, but of course they will also add visual beauty to flower beds and borders.
Best planted in sheltered spots. Plant from September to November.
