Elegant and understated this sugar pink triumph tulip is one of the best pink tulips. The long-lasting flowers have a classic shape and sit on sturdy upright stems that cope well with wind and rain. It looks great in mass plantings and their delicate mix of both pale and deeper pink on each petal means that they are easy to mix with many other shades.
