These big, blowsy flowers are a warm shade we'll call apricot-yellow, but there are tinges of old rose and ivory in evidence as well. They are excellent for cutting. Bring your nose close, and you'll pick up a pleasing light fragrance from 'Apricot Parrot'. Midseason bloom.

Parrot Tulips are so-called for their heavily frilled and scalloped, feathery-edged blooms in bright colors. This group makes stunning cut flowers that are sure to provoke as much admiration now as they did when the Old Masters were painting them. Because the flowers are so big and full, they like protection from wind. For more information on Tulip care, click on "Growing Guide & Tips".
