“Ice Cream” Tulip – Double Late


I never cease to be amazed by the endless varieties of tulips that are available. Every year when I visit Keukenhof, I see tulips that are new and surprising in their size, shape or colour. This year, one of my favourite discoveries was the Double-Late variety “Ice Cream.” It really does look like its name-sake!

Just before the blossom opens

As it begins to open

Fully Open

A bit of before and after
