Description
Lily-Flowered Tulip Purple Dream is suited to Irish market that wants a purple tulip with clean form, useful height and a cooler colour tone for late spring schemes. The flowers begin with a slender, goblet-shaped profile before opening into the graceful form associated with lily-flowered tulips. The colour sits between lavender and rich violet-purple, with a clear white eye at the base that becomes visible as the bloom opens.
Purple Dream works well where a cooler, more considered colour palette is needed. It is a good fit for estate paths, hotel borders, public garden entrances, civic planters, business frontages, wedding venues and large containers. The purple colouring combines effectively with white narcissus, cream tulips, soft pink tulips, blue muscari, dark maroon tulips and late alliums.
The lily-flowered form gives Purple Dream a narrow, elegant outline, with pointed petals that open and reflex slightly as the flowers age. This makes Purple Dream more refined than standard cup-shaped tulips, while still giving enough height and colour for grouped professional planting.
Purple Dream is also suitable for cut flower use and container displays, with long-lasting reflexed flowers and good performance in pots and borders.
