watersedge, you must have a rich boss! What a swathe of colour!

ghia_girl, it stays the same more or less, I posted a pic further up, the reference to Fire of Love (reversing it for mine) was in answer to JamesCo's pic and comments of his tulip of that name. The name is T. praestans 'Unicum', it is a species tulip which will return every year. Sorry to confuse!

The leaves are thick and hairy on close inspection, most likely a survival technique for dry places, it holds water well!
