Tulip ‘’Blushing Apeldoorn’
Blooming in mid to late spring, this classic Darwin hybrid tulip is a wonderful, long-lived perennial for spring, featuring rich yellow petals edged with a thin soft red line, and fine red feathered with fine red ‘brushstrokes’ that create a blush of tangerine orange. With such an unusual color palette, the large flowers create an eye-catching display no matter where it is planted. The sturdy 22” stems keep the well-formed tulips from drooping during spring weather, when heavy rain and strong wind tend to topple lesser flowers. Plant in full sun to part shade for best results. Hardy in Zones 3-8
