Color Exactly as Described!
Apricot Delight turned out exactly as described in Longfield Garden’s entry. The first and most noticable characteristic was the purple mottled leaves, which in my garden showed just for the first leaves to open at the bottom, on the inner side. These bloomed mid-season for me. I found them to look very much like the Apricona tulips also bought from Longfield Gardens which (for me, preferably) bloomed with regular leaves a little later.

The Apricot Delight ...
The Apricot Delight tulips were the first to bloom. They had a beautiful shape and stood up to the wind. I live along the coast so the wind is a constant factor.
