With its various shades, this tulip offers a unique texture reminiscent of a peony.

The Double Early Tulip 'Foxy Foxtrot' belongs to the Liliaceae family. Of horticultural origin, it is classified in the group of double early tulips, whose main characteristic is to flower at the same height, making it a popular category among enthusiasts of well-arranged borders. Perched on strong 30-40 cm (12-16in) stems, just above the widely lanceolate leaves, the fully open double flowers, 10 to 12 cm (4 to 5in) wide, open up in a dense and colourful array of petals. With a superb colour, the flowers are composed of petals where yellow-orange, apricot, and pink blend together. The flowering takes place in April, at the heart of the tulip season. The foliage, composed of beautiful glaucous green lanceolate leaves, yellows and dries a few weeks after flowering, while the bulb enters its dormant phase.
