Description
Tulip 'Mayfair' steps into the spring garden with all the polish and poise of its namesake, bringing a dash of high-end flair to the border. This new and Farmer Gracy exclusive tulip is a double-flowered delight, with plush yellow petals edged in a bold stroke of red—like a golden gown with just the right touch of drama. The blooms are large, full, and beautifully structured, making Tulip 'Mayfair' a real showpiece for mid to late spring. Whether you’re planting a formal display or livening up a few patio pots, this double tulip brings warmth, energy, and a quietly confident charm.
Tulip 'Mayfair' looks especially effective when planted in groups, where its warm yellow tones and contrasting red edges can play off each other beautifully. Try pairing it with tulips in cream or deep burgundy for a balanced, painterly effect. For those who like their spring flowers with a bit of richness and detail, Tulip 'Mayfair' brings a stylish twist to the season.
