Tulipa-Parrot ‘Amazing Parrot’
Tulipa 'Amazing Parrot' has glowing candy-lavender-pink or salmony-pink flowers with orange highlights.
Parrot type tulips are characterized by variable petals with contortions and fringing that resembles ruffled feathers. ‘Amazing Parrot’ is definitely an amazing cultivar with flowers appearing candy-lavender-pink or salmony-pink depending on the age of the flower and light. Bright orange highlights along the petal edges complete the show. Hybrid tulips can persist in the garden for many years. Afterall, they rebloom each year in the fields of the Netherlands. Provide full sun where bulbs aren’t shaded by other plants, fertilize with bulb food as soon as they emerge in spring, and allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering.
