Tulip 'CONTINENTAL' is triumph Tulip that blooms in April. The dark-burgundy color looks almost black in the shade & is a perfect partner for Tulip 'queen of night'. although excellent for cut flowers, continental’s real strength is garden performance. The look of the blossoms is extraordinary & holds well even in bad weather. We suggest planting 'CONTINENTAL' with Tulip queen of night & Tulip clear water or Daffodil thalia for abundance of contrasting colored blossoms
