    Black eyed, magenta pink flowers put on a showy display in spring, when they pop up above their slender grey-green foliage. A low-growing species tulip, it is ideal for adding a vibrant splash of colour to patio pots (or windowboxes), and it also makes a natural addition to rockeries and alpine beds. It's small, but very sweet!
