Product description
Tulip 'Dee Jay Parrot' is a spectacular late-spring bloomer known for its heavily ruffled, fringed petals. The striking purple-pink flowers feature vivid green flames that bring a dramatic flair to any garden display. This flamboyant variety looks particularly stunning when planted in large groups or used as a bold statement in cut flower arrangements.
To keep Tulip 'Dee Jay Parrot' looking its best, ensure it is planted in well-draining soil to prevent winter rot.
