Marilyn, a 1976 sport of
Mariette, is one of the most fun, beautiful girls in the garden. She can be wild or sedate, depending on the amount of sunlight and wind. She can dance through the garden or stand straight and tall. Opening creamy-white with red feathering and flames, Marilyn matures to bright, glistening white and vibrant red. Marilyn is beautifully paired with parent
Mariette,
White Triumphator or even
Budlight. (The framed photo of Marilyn over our Mensingeweer mantel is one of Eric Breed’s flower portraits available at
www.tulippictures.eu.) Tulip Class: Lily Flowering. Bulb size: 12 cm/up. May. HZ: 3-7. 22".
