Artist was one of the world's first viridiflora tulips and it's still among the best. These distinctive flowers have fluted petals that start out carrot-orange with deep green and purple markings. As the blossoms mature, they gradually fade to dusky salmon, olive and lavender. At just under a foot tall, this is a relatively short tulip and ideal for planting at the front of a border or along a walk. Blooms early and lasts two weeks or more.
