Tulipa 'Menton'

40 x 70cm

Watercolour on Fabriano Artistico white cotton rag 300 gsm

Artist's collection

This late tulip is a stunning, tall and elegant flower with lovely peachy pink tones which darken up in the sun to something much stronger than the catalogue, and the specimens spotted at Chelsea Flower show.

It's a drama show in the border in spring, at 70cm high. Completely irresistible to paint.
