I bought a bag of bulbs from a cheap shop and I'm delighted they all came up. The label said 'Fringed mixed' and they are very pretty, though mostly red, but one bloom has dozens of petals and looks almost like a rose. Can anyone tell me what type this is as I'd love to order some for next year. Hope you can see the photos to help identify it. Fingers crossed someone knows.

That's known as a 'double', so google for 'double fringed tulips' and you should find several types which look similar. I'd hazard a guess that it is 'Sensual Touch'.
Brilliant info thank you.
I think it's this one, diggingdoris, you can buy it here, probably from about September.
