Tulipa Sprengeri

Strong clumps of glossy bright green leaves stand below goblet-shaped bright red flowers which are 5-6cm in length in early summer. This is the latest of all of the tulips to open its flowers and will self seed to make remarkable colonies in time. This most desirable, rare, late-blooming tulip which will grow in sun or shade, is very rarely for sale and then is often offered at more than £3 per bulb!
