Tulip 'Negrita Parrot'

Negrita Parrot is a captivating tulip that will surely add a touch of drama to any garden. This late parrot tulip is known for its large, deeply fringed petals that curl and twist into an almost extravagant display. The blooms carry a regal purple hue, which can appear very dark in certain light, creating a striking contrast to the more traditional spring palette.

The Negrita Parrot tulip grows up to 45–50 cm tall and thrives in both beds and containers. Its unique form and color make it a standout choice for cut flower arrangements. With strong stems and a robust nature, it withstands the elements well, and its late spring bloom extends the tulip season, adding color and interest once earlier varieties have faded.

Pair Negrita Parrot with lighter tulips like Finola or Angelique, or with contrasting textures such as the smooth, cup-shaped blooms of Golden Apeldoorn. The Negrita Parrot tulip is a true showstopper in the garden, promising to bring a touch of the exotic to your outdoor space.

The Negrita family has grown quite large, now including Negrita, Crown of Negrita, Double Negrita, and this striking variety.
