Tulip Dee Jay Parrot is a spectacular Parrot tulip producing large, richly coloured blooms in glowing coral red with striking golden yellow highlights. As the flowers mature, the dramatically ruffled and feathered petals unfurl to reveal their exotic form, creating an eye-catching display throughout April and May. Reaching approximately 45cm in height, this vibrant variety is perfect for borders, beds, patio containers and outstanding spring cut flower arrangements.

Easy to grow and full of personality, Tulip Dee Jay Parrot brings bold colour and texture to the late spring garden. It looks particularly impressive when planted in generous groups or combined with orange, yellow or deep burgundy tulips for a vibrant seasonal display. The unusual flowers are long-lasting both in the garden and in fresh floral arrangements.

Aftercare
Remove faded flowers once blooming has finished, but allow the foliage to die back naturally so the bulbs can store energy for the following season. Plant in well-drained soil to keep bulbs healthy over winter. Lifting and storing bulbs after the foliage has died back may improve flowering performance in heavier soils.
