Features

notes

As its name suggests, the Tulip ‘Royal Celebration’ is a magisterial variety featuring a highly elaborate and unusual decoration. Primarily coloured with a vanilla yellow, almost golden bloom, its curled petal on each side frames it in a decadent purplish-pink, a shade that also gently emerges from the base and bleeds into a distinct stripe that cuts through the centre.

Insights

Lily-Flowered Tulips are an especially unique variety due to their slender appearance with often pointed, recurving petals. Most blooming in late spring, they make an intriguing choice for your beds in addition to an eccentric arrangement of cut flowers.
