A true showstopper in the spring garden – flamboyant, bold, and utterly captivating. With its dramatically ruffled petals in shades of apricot, coral, rose-pink and soft green, this exotic beauty brings a painterly flourish to borders, containers, and floral arrangements. As the blooms mature, their colours intensify and shift, creating an ever-changing display that’s both theatrical and elegant.
A tall and stately tulip, ‘Amazing Parrot’ stands proudly on strong stems, making it ideal for cutting – a single stem in a vase is enough to steal the spotlight. Like all parrot tulips, it thrives best in a sunny, sheltered spot where its sumptuous blooms can fully unfurl and shine. Plant in generous groups for a dazzling effect or mix with soft pastels for a touch of spring drama.
