Tulip Orange Marmelade
Tulip Orange Marmelade is a striking Viridiflora tulip distinguished by its glowing orange tones layered with vivid green flames. The petals open in warm shades of mandarin, apricot, and soft amber, each marked with fresh green brushstrokes rising from the base. The green colouring remains clearly visible as the bloom matures, creating depth and movement within the flower.. Flowering in mid to late spring, this variety belongs to the Viridiflora group, valued for its firm stems and extended bloom time. The flowers hold their form beautifully in typical spring conditions, remaining upright and composed even during cooler spells. The silhouette is elegant and structured rather than overly open, which makes it particularly refined in borders and containers.. Reaching approximately 45–50 cm, Tulip Orange Marmelade integrates effortlessly into mixed plantings. The warmth of its colouring pairs well with deep purples, soft blush tones, creamy whites, and fresh green foliage, adding vibrancy without overwhelming neighbouring plants.. Plant in autumn in well-drained soil, in full sun to light shade. High-quality, top-sized bulbs ensure strong stems and well-developed blooms in the first flowering season, especially important for Viridiflora varieties, where structure and colour clarity are key.. Tulip Orange Marmelade offers warmth, subtle complexity, and dependable garden performance in one distinctive spring tulip.
