    Hello---I'm looking for a triumph tulip called Tulipa Hans Anrud, a dark purple tulip fast becoming uncultivated,as far as I have been able to find out, in Holland. the tulip was named for my great-uncle Hans Aanrud,a Norwegian writer and drama critic in Oslo. He died in the late 50's.

    Does anyone grow this tulip? I'd love to have it ln my own new garden.

    Ruth Aanrud.

    Never heard of it, sorry. I'm not very into tulips.

    to eileen---thanks for the directions to PlantCafe

    Thanks for the directions to PlantCafe. At least I'll have an image of tulipa Hans Anrud. I've located a source for the bulbs, which are becoming rare. And have ordered up a photo of the tulip for myself. Thanks again. I'm hoping to grow a few of my own, and will photograph my own this spring,maybe.
