Tulip ‘La Belle Epoque’
Description
One of the most uniquely colored tulips we’ve ever grown, this caramel, muddy-rose treasure is a flower arranger’s dream. Stunning, variable-colored petals change from a rosy-plum hue to a smoky peach-brown over time. This beauty only grows 12 to 16 in tall, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in color. Incredible in bouquets and wedding work, this novelty has a loyal fan club.
