The pic on the package showed pinks, purples, and white double-flowering late peony-flowing tulips mixed. I've been watching this guy turn orange and mature for almost a week. I'm tickled orange! I think he'll be a beauty (he's the first to bloom from the pack). Anybody have any ideas what this tulip might be?
Not sure, but it looks like my Double Dutch before it got darker- here is a picture of Orange Princess and Double Dutch together
I love doubles too :)
here is the catalogue entry of DD where I bought it:

*edited to change Princess Irene to Orange Princess, which is what I really have- I am such a newbie

Oh, found a picture of one just opening up- their color really changes quite a bit- please excuse the bird poop
They do look alot like my mystery tulip. They're all so gorgeous. Here's a pic of it in full bloom..
I just checked out your B&B link. I remember looking at this "Double Dutch" page before and getting that sort of lose-your-breath-over-a-flower feeling!
Laugh, Brent and Becky's is good for that isn't it! Makes me wish I had a few thousand and more land, to just fill my life with their bulbs :)
