Royal Parrot Tulip

Description

Royal Parrot tulips are the wild hearts of our spring crop; flamboyant, expressive, and impossible to ignore. We grow them for designers who want texture, movement, and color that leaps off the table. These blooms unfurl in a blaze of coral, crimson, and flame-orange, with deeply fringed petals that twist and ripple like silk caught in a breeze. They bloom mid to late spring on strong 16–20 inch stems, sturdy enough to anchor dramatic centerpieces and bold bridal work. Their parrot-style form is sculptural and unpredictable, which makes harvesting them a thrill—no two flowers are ever quite the same. There’s a faint, sweet fragrance if you catch them in the morning sun, but it’s their fiery palette and theatrical silhouette that make them a favorite among florists who want to push past the ordinary. Royal Parrot tulips don’t whisper—they roar.
