Tulipa Golden Parade (Darwin Hybrid Tulip)

For eye-catching spring color, Tulip 'Golden Parade' is terrific with its egg-shaped buttercup yellow flowers adorned with a very thin and delicate red margin. Blooming in mid-late spring, the flowers open in the sun to reveal a small black blotch and black anthers. Adding a great presence in the garden, the blossoms sit on tall sturdy stems above the foliage of broad, gray-green leaves. Introduced in 1963, Golden Parade is a sport of award-winning Tulip 'Parade'. A great member of the Darwin Hybrid Group.
