Fringed Tulip Blue Heron

Fringed Tulip Blue Heron

When we first saw this gorgeous fringed tulip, we thought it was one of the finest we've seen. With an unusual violet-blue color and open, cup-shaped form, Blue Heron is a stunner from the tips of its fringed, crystalline purple petals to the bottoms of its sturdy, straight stems. We're positive that when your customers get a look at these wonderfully exotic blooms, they'll be fans, too. Flowering in May, Blue Heron adds something quite special to cutting gardens, seasonal borders and cutting gardens. It has become a go-to for sophisticated indoor arrangements as well as a fine garden addition. Plant bulbs in part shade to full sun for best results.
