Here's a Fringed Tulip with the size and vigor you would expect from a French Single Late variety. 'Cummins' has gorgeous, 4in violet blossoms with crystalline white edges that are spectacular in formal arrangements. Late season.
Also known as "crispa" Tulips, Fringed Tulips have flower petals that are edged with finely cut fringes. If you're seeking a beautiful novelty bedding plant, you've found it.
In April and May, nothing in the garden comes close to the range of colors and forms that Tulips can provide, from passionate reds, glowing oranges, deepest purples, and sunny yellows to charming pastels plus pure white. Why not have a glorious supply of fresh flowers close at hand in your own garden? Plant these bold shades in splashes in the perennial border or near an entrance, or fill a prominent bed or formal parterre. Here's chance to have some fun.
