Tulip 'Vogue'
- Good for Cutting
- Perfect for Pots
A petal-packed peony of a tulip similar to ‘Double Sugar’ but more spectacular, if that’s possible
Each ruffled petal has a delicate frosted effect, with the large flowers held on straight and sturdy stems. Also classed as a Double Late, they will flower into May.
At Perch Hill we’ll team this with acid green Euphorbias like oblongata to really make the candy pink pop.
Tulip petals are all edible. We scatter them over salad and use some petals dipped in tempura batter and served with a spring garden Frito Misto.
