Description
There’s nothing shy about the stance of this tall and strong tulip in your garden. However, the Tulip Oxford Wonder appears to be bashful enough to blush (her petals sometimes turning almost completely red) as she shyly reveals her full beauty to the sun in mid spring. Yet she has no need to lack confidence, her magnificence is something beyond question.
The size of the orange-red flame which blushes the outside of Oxford Wonder’s yellow petals varies from flower to flower, and the same red tips the ruffled edges. Inside the huge open bloom, a green heart sets off the pure deep yellow.
