I wonder if anyone has grown the Tulip 'Orange Sunset'?  It is billed as a huge flowered cultivar.  It sells locally for $4 per bulb and the results have been distressing.  The flowers get pinched between the leaves and fail the emerge properly; besides that the interiors of the flowers are quite rotten as they sit there.  Seems the rot is so advanced it must have started within the bulb.

I purchased these last year through a garden centre.  One of my favourite tulips.
 Note that the cetres of Peppermint Stick are much more brown than the subspecies.  Also, the outside colouring is a bit different and consistent.

Didn't we have this discussion last year?  I showed the same cultivar and some were sure it should be under humilis, while others seemed to prefer hageri.  I really don't know what seperates these two species.  I can say that the plant and flower form look a great deal like what I am growing as humilis Perisan Pearl and humilis albocoerulea oculata.  Only the colouring is clearly different.

Whatever the reality, or possibly should we say current verdict, is, I find all of these easy , rewarding garden plants that like my garden (they actually clump-up!), therfore they will stay regardless of their true identities.  ;D

Wim is your Little Beauty, and it is a beauty, upsidedown?

Many gaps in my tulips where I assume the hard freeze killed them

Mark, not upside down... the front of the trough in which they grow is down.

No No. The bulbs would be in the air if that were the case. ;D
