Tulip Seadov Parrot

Tulip Seadov Parrot

Tulip Seadov Parrot combines dark dramatic deep red ruffled flowers often tinged with greed streaks, giving April to May displays a dramatic, textured finish with strong close-view appeal.  Creates dramatic appeal when planted in hotel planters, estate borders, civic beds, public gardens, courtyard containers and premium commercial landscape schemes or where red spring colour, dark flame markings, ruffled parrot form and premium close-view display value are required.

Description

Parrot Tulip Seadov Parrot is a decorative red tulip for planting where a standard red variety would be too plain. It keeps the strong colour value of Seadov, but adds the ruffled, irregular petal shape that gives parrot tulips their more sculptural and expressive appearance. The flowers are red with dark flame green markings, carried at around 35cm and flowering from April to May.

Seadov Parrot is best used where people can see the flower shape properly. It suits hotel entrance planters, estate garden borders, courtyard containers, public garden displays, commercial frontages, premium civic beds and formal seasonal planting. The red colour gives immediate impact, while the darker flaming adds depth and a more dramatic finish than a flat red tulip. Use in managed beds, sheltered borders and containers where the flower form can be appreciated.

Seadov Parrot combines well with cream tulips, white narcissus, blue muscari, dark purple tulips, yellow tulips, red tulips and later alliums. It can be used as a textured red feature group or planted with smoother red Triumph tulips to create contrast between plain cup-shaped flowers and more ruffled parrot forms.
