La Belle Époque Tulip Bulbs

Romantic, painterly, and unlike any other tulip, La Belle Époque is cherished for its extraordinary blend of antique rose, smoky apricot, warm caramel, soft coffee, and dusty mauve. As each bloom opens, the colors shift and deepen, making every stem feel like a hand-painted work of art.

This late-season double peony-flowered tulip produces lush, layered blooms with exceptional texture and a graceful, heirloom feel. Its muted, earthy palette pairs beautifully with both soft spring pastels and rich, dramatic garden colors, making it a favorite for cutting gardens, floral designers, and anyone who loves an artistic spring display.

Planted in groups, La Belle Époque creates an unforgettable display in borders, containers, and cottage gardens. Indoors, the long-lasting blooms bring warmth and elegance to spring arrangements.
