Description

Flowers are an unusual color that is similar to 'cola'; not quite brown but almost. Lighter flowers benefit being planted near to make them 'pop'. Plants are 14"-16" tall, & bloom in mid spring. Triumph tulips are used mainly for forcing and are, therefore, the largest group of tulips available; very showy but generally not very perennial.
