A weird tulip appeared! – Reddit Post

We inherited two tulip patches at our home that were probably planted sometime in the 50’s, but could date back to the 1920s, we aren’t sure.

On one side, we have yellow tulips with a bit of red veining on them.

On the other side, we have pinkish/red tulips with a bit of yellow.

This year, a totally random singular tulip popped up in the front of our house, and here it is. It’s the same yellow as our eastern facing tulip patch, but has this shocking-red heterochromatic effect. Wild.

I’m sure it probably was dug up by an animal and was redistributed there, but I think it’s funny that it seems like the two tulips patches had a baby, which was then banished to live under the lilac bush.
