A generous planting of this late-blooming beauty extends the tulip season in your customer's or client's garden. Menton is a Mayflowering type that boasts a classic egg-shaped tulip form and a color palette that changes depending on where it is located in the landscape. Yes… you read that right! Menton produces rosy pink tulips in shady sites and apricot-rose blooms in sunny areas. With the right planting strategy, this gives gardeners two distinct colors in one unique tulip. Flowers emerge in May—quite late for tulips—filling in the space between the spring bulbs and that time when the summer perennials begin to emerge.
