: My son's mother-in-law in Hungary has a tulip that is a red-orange color and has varigated leaves (dark green stripes), which I have never seen before.

: Anyone have any ideas what it is?

Hi Susan,

Try and find out how tall and if this is an open faced one or a closed cup type.

Here's some online sites to take a look at. This first one has heirloom bulbs in case it's an older variety.
