My friend brought a red Tulip into the pub to show us last night.It has five flower heads on it ,and one of the leaves is also red and green,has any heard of this before?

Yes, there are multi-headed tulips with variegated leaves.

I cant find any with multi-heads on one stem if thats what you mean, and not seen red in the leaves, normally green/white stripes?

[Polly1958]

Yes, the flower has one stalk with five stems coming out of it each with a flower on.The red part on the leaf is rather like a petal than a leaf.

Thanks Robinia i have had a look at the site and it looks very much like the tulip there.I didn't know there were such things.
