Tulip Acuminata

The heirloom Tulip acuminata may have been around since the 19^th century, but today, it’s a rarity. That may seem strange. How could anything this beautiful become so scarce? After all, the blooms are shaped like leaping flames, and the wonderful combination of scarlet tips on petals the colour of molten gold enforce the fiery analogy. All in all, Tulip acuminata makes for a stunning display, especially when planted en masse or in generous clumps. You’ll be thinking of flaming phoenixes and other mythical creatures when Tulip acuminata (also known as the horned tulip) sets your garden ablaze this spring. But first, you need to catch the autumn planting season. Don’t miss out!
