It is red, and from it, he hybridized the group that became known as the Emperor Tulips.  The world-famous Red Emperor was introduced in 1931, and is what we now call a member of the 'Fosteriana Tulip' group. In fact, Red Emperor's official variety name is 'Madame Lefeber' in honor of the original hybridizer's wife.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Even though the Red Emperor and other fosterianas were instant sensations, the hybridizers were not satisfied.  They were fascinated by what were then called simply 'Darwin Tulips'.  These were large-flowered tulips in clear colors on tall stems, but without any perennial qualities.  The Emperors, being close to a wild species, were quite perennial, so they crossed the two groups.  And voila!  Darwin Hybrid Tulips were born, with the best qualities of both groups. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Ever since, the Darwin Hybrids have set the standards worldwide for tall graceful, large flowered perennial tulips. The famous Apeldoorn group was introduced in 1951 by D. W. Lefeber and Company.  There are not many Darwin Hybrids, even today.  But they are every good gardener's favorites and always highly valued by florists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn America's Top Ten list for popularity in the US, compiled by the Netherlands Flower Bulb Information Centre, they list no less than three Darwin Hybrids, more than from any other group.'\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AMI Production","offers":[{"title":"Bag of 10","offer_id":51998064673085,"sku":"AM003512","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bag of 100","offer_id":51998064705853,"sku":"AM001241","price":67.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0107\/1487\/3956\/files\/tulip-plant-to-impress-mix-garden.jpg?v=1784369862","url":"https:\/\/seedsplant.com\/products\/fall-tulip-flower-bulbs-plant-to-impress-mix","provider":"Seedsplant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
