'Chrysantha' tulip opens with a peach colored outer petal and beautifully unfurls into a curved star-shaped, rich-yellow colored bloom. Now I am a little bit of a bulb nut, so please understand when I say that I could possibly enjoy the bud stage more than the full bloom of the Chrysantha. Something about the sleek aesthetic form of crisp, colorful lines wrapping around a bud excites me. I do admit that when the buds enlarge over a week-long period and the sun eventually coaxes them into opening, I too am amazed at the powerful and colorful impact these little bulbs have on the senses.
