We'd call these tulips monsters if they weren't so gorgeous! A picture perfect strain developed by Dutch tulip grower Sjaak Groot, with giant flowers at least 5" high on impressively tall, sturdy stems. Sjaak likes to describe them this way: "Het zijn beren van tulpen" ("These tulips are as strong as bears"). In fact, in Holland it's said you can park your bicycle against them! The grower is especially proud of them because they're such good perennializers and can tolerate the heat of late spring. The colors in this mix are as soft and romantic as an Impressionist painting. Imagine the impact these late-blooming tulips will make in your garden and in bouquets! Top-size 12 cm+ bulbs.
