Tulipa greigii hybrid ‘Fire of Love’
Tulipa greigii 'Fire of Love' has stunning blue-green foliage edged in creamy yellow and striped with red cupping large, bright red flowers.
I have been hunting for a source for this magnificent tulip ever since I saw it for the first time in Keukenhof Gardens in the Netherlands in 2012. Tulipa ‘Fire of Love’ has stunning blue-green foliage edged in creamy yellow and striped with burgundy and red. The large, bright red flowers sit just above the foliage. The Greigii hybrids are long lasting tulips great for naturalizing that come back year after year if planted in good sunny spots.
