Tulipa batalinii 'Bright Gem'

Flowering at last! Another favourite tulip lol - how many am I allowed?

I particularly love the softly coloured grey green leaves against the flower colour

Philomel, I would love to have some of the various viridis tulips, green seems kind of an interesting color in a tulip. Do you have any? I love that shot looking down into the tulip. Tulips really are a beautiful harbinger of spring.

I used to have a couple of the viridis ones, but I think I've probably lost them. I'll have to keep an eye out - and in the catalogues for next year if none appear in the garden LOL, now you've reminded me how much I like them
