This is Double Early Tulip ‘Royal Acres’. The fragrant flowers are royal purple with ruffled petal edges:
‘Royal Acres’ grows 12-14 inches tall and is hardy in Zones 3-8.
The flowers appear on sturdy stems in mid-spring, and they can handle the freaky weather that spring often brings—snow, sleet, heavy rain, wind. My plants bloomed for almost a month this year.
