Creme Upstar

Creme Upstar, full and large primrose-yellow flowers with an intriguing pink brush stroke on the outer petals. The colours soften as the flower ages.

A lovely cloud of a tulip, modest in colour and yet with a fluffy prettiness that is quite appealing. The old-fashioned air of the tulip makes it a welcome mid-spring border plant, showing its colours best where there is a light dappling of sun for at least part of the day. Excellent against the green leaves of shrubs and evergreens. Height 35cm.

Suggestion: Drifts of blue Muscari will add an exquisite touch to this delicate scheme.
