description for "Tulips: Tulipa 'Perlina'"
Exterior porcelain-rose and lemon-yellow; inside glowing porcelain-rose, anthers purple. These tulips are desired for their exquisite foliage which is mottled and streaked with purple stripes. Lower growing, the Greigii tulips should be planted in the front of the border. They bloom in mid spring and produce one six-petaled flower on a short, rigid stem. The petals are usually pointed. They naturalize very well. If you leave them alone, they come back year after year, and even multiply. --edited by dtd siegelgirl
