Naturalizes well, will make your heart race! Tulip ‘Lady Jane’ makes a striking impact with its lovely color combination: rosy red with white margins on the outside, and snow-white on the inside.
Award-winning Tulip 'Lady Jane' is quite short but makes a striking impact with its lovely color combination: rosy red with white margins on the outside, and snow-white on the inside. The completely opened flower forms a star during the sunny hours. A beautiful sight! Wet, windy weather during its flowering period in mid-spring will have little effect on ‘Lady Jane’! A member of the Botanical Tulips, this tulip is quite versatile in the garden.
