Mysterious Parrot - COMING SEPTEMBER 7TH AT 5PM

The stunning Mysterious Parrot tulip has ruffly frilled and waved petals with ripples of purple and a touch of green. This unique and hard-to-find variety is such a treat to have in the garden, and it pairs beautifully with whites and cremes in the garden.

If you want to perennialize your tulips, it’s important to leave at least two sets of leaves on the stem when harvesting to replenish the bulb and give it energy to bloom the following season. Here at Dahlia May, we grow our tulips for cut flower production, meaning that we treat them as annuals and pull up the entire plant, including the bulb, during harvest. In your home garden, there is no need to lift the bulb in the spring after flowering. Allow the foliage of your plant to die back naturally after blooming, as this process helps nourish the bulb for the subsequent year.

We find that many specialty tulips do not typically perennialize well in the garden. You'll be able to enjoy their blooms for one spring, and blooming in any subsequent years can be a wonderful bonus.
