Tulipa schrenkii
Tulipa schrenkii is a botanical tulip with glowing, red flowers with yellow highlights and narrow green foliage.
Tulipa schrenkii is a long stemmed botanical tulip with red, bowl shaped flowers that may have yellow tips and centres and broad, rippling, blue green foliage. Botanical tulips are miniature to small species tulips, cultivars of species, or dwarf named cultivars not far removed from their wild ancestors. They are strongly perennial and will naturalize when happy unlike the large Dutch hybrids which are often treated as annuals or which fail after a couple years.
