Salmon Impression
T1566
With petals of peach suffused with coral pink, overlaid with a shimmering mother-of-pearl sheen, Darwin Tulip ‘Salmon Impression’ has a soft, romantic air.

The beauteous blooms are long-lasting both in the garden and in the vase, making them equally fantastic as cut flowers to enjoy indoors.
