Amazing colouration for mid spring.
Show your love for bright colour this coming spring season with a generous planting of this gorgeous new Triumph type. Desert Sun pairs a classic tulip form with an outstanding palette of hues to create wonderfully warm blooms that are quite at home in borders and beds. Elegant egg-shaped tulips bear supple petals of glorious yellow, edged and accented in shades of rich bronze and vivid orange. Strong stems keep the flowers upright and straight even when unpredictable springtime weather occurs. Plant in groups for maximum impact.
