Tulip 'New Design' is an elegant tulip with soft yellow flowers flushed with pinkish-white and edged in pale fuchsia-red. Inside each flower cup is a surprise: here the color is a soft yellow, flamed with apricot, and the base is an unexpectedly rich buttercup-yellow shown off by dark brown anthers. Even the variegated leaves are exotic – soft green edged in pale pinkish white!

- Growing up to 16 inches tall (40 cm), this tulip creates dazzling harmonies with other flowering bulbs.
