With a shapely form an absolutely riveting color, Red Dress will have gardeners and landscapers clamoring for more… bulbs, that is. Also known as a coronet type, this curvaceous tulip is unlike most others on the market today. Its pleasing flower form resembles a crown and the color is a rich merlot shade that is totally unique. Plus, Red Dress is a very long blooming variety, beginning in mid spring and flowering until quite late in the season. The long lasting tulips are great as cut flowers and make excellent border plantings, too.

These are beautiful. The deer left these alone while still eating others close by and they have been blooming for 2 weeks now and are looking like they are getting close to being done but they still look beautiful.

Lovely ruby red color, long vase life and great petal substance. I grew them to cut but they were lovely in the garden, unfazed by heavy spring rain and wind.
