Description
There’s just no missing this spectacular tulip, no matter how many marchers there are in this parade. The Tulip Parade, with its huge blooms that can open to a width of 6 inches, is a stunning contender for top honors in any garden. The signal-red flowers with the thinnest of yellow edges, disclose a black centre on opening, and provide a glow of sheer brilliance as the sun touches them.
Tulip Parade has been awarded with an RHS Award of Garden Merit for its excellent performance under UK growing conditions. |

One of the strongest of the Darwin hybrids, it is among the taller tulips and has a sturdy stem which makes it both able to withstand wind and rain outdoors and serve as an excellent cut flower indoors.
