The oldest tall tulip still under cultivation!
Dating back to 1750, this brilliant heirloom variety is even older than Breck's, but it's still a stunner. Keizerskroon is Dutch for "emperor's crown," a fitting name for this eye-catching tulip whose scented, egg-shaped flowers are intensely red and edged in vibrant gold. This historic variety is also called Grand Duc.
