Miscellaneous and Species Tulips
WILD TULIP COLLECTIONS While these bulbs are not harvested in the wild, they represent tulips you’d fi nd growing in woodlands and mountains throughout the world. Once comfortable, they will last and last in your garden. They’re very different from the big hybrid bulbs both in size and appearance and most naturalize easily.

MODERN REMBRANDT TULIPS MIX #T465X
D
As a class, Rembrandt tulips are those cultivars fl owers striped and splashed with brown, bronze, black, red, pink or purple on red, white or yellow ground. In the original Rembrandt’s, the markings were caused by a virus infection. Due to the virus, true Rembrandt’s are no longer produced or sold commercially and can only be found in historical collections. That’s why we call our Rembrandt’s “modern” as they include only virus-free cultivars that are striped, fl amed and swirled in rainbow color combinations.
