Fringed Tulips Plant

Perennial bulb to 0.45 m, Fringed Tulips have petals with crystal-like fringes in varied colors, blooming mid-late spring. Originating from Dutch mutations, they grow in full sun, fertile soil with moderate water, ideal for temperate gardens. Non-edible, non-medicinal, they add texture to borders or bouquets.
