Description

As they emerge, snowy white blooms are edged and streaked in rich purple. But as time goes on, these classic egg-shaped flowers present wider, more prominent purple margins until the darker hue dominates the scene. Sure to become a favourite in mid-spring borders.

Containers, Flower Beds

Care

Tulip bulbs are planted in the fall for spring blooms. Be sure to plant your tulips 6 inches deep with 4"-6" spacing in a mostly sunny location with good drainage. They will tolerate some shade but do best in full sun. Tulips do not like to be kept moist so do not overwater. Fertilize with a general low nitrogen fertilizer when the foliage first emerges in the spring.
