Tulipa crispa Vincent van Gogh

Tulipa 'Vincent van Gogh' is a fringed tulip bearing elegant flowers in dark colours. Their tone varies from dark purple to almost black, depending on the time and day. It blooms in the second part of spring, towards the end of the tulip season. Its flowers are carried by a sturdy stem. They are perfect in a vase, in the garden, or in flower pots. It enhances all neighbouring plants and pairs well with an infinite range of pastel or bolder colours, from white to pink and red, passing through all shades of blue.

Tulipa 'Vincent van Gogh' belongs to the Liliaceae family. Of horticultural origin, it was registered in 2011. It is classified in the 'Crispa' group, whose main characteristic is finely dentate petals. This tulip will reach approximately 45cm (18in) in height when flowering. Flowering takes place in April-May, a little later than other tulips. The flowers are single, with a slightly open cup, in a beautiful palette of rich and dark tones, enhanced by the satin texture of the petals. The fringed edges of this magnificent tulip add to its mysterious charm. The flowers last a long time and extend the tulip season until May.

Ideal for borders, Tulipa 'Vincent van Gogh' will also create beautiful spots in perennial flower beds, alongside biennial plants that will fill the space after flowering.
