Tulipa Esperanto (Viridiflora Tulip)

Award-winning Tulip 'Esperanto' is incredibly pretty with its rose pink petals that fade to pale pink toward the base and soft green feathering atop a creamy-edged, silver-green foliage – a rich and amazing visual. Blooming in late spring, this spectacular member of the Viridiflora Tulips group enjoys long-lasting blooms (3 weeks!) and adds an elegant touch to a mixed or color-themed border.
