VAN ZYVERDEN Tulips Bulbs Easter Basket Mixture (Set of 15)

Tulips are unique in range of size, shape and bold color found in almost every color spectrum, that only tulips provide. Tulips are good for a wide range of plantings, are excellent in the rock garden, in formal beds, as elegant cut flowers, and for containers. They can be used in nearly any garden design scheme. Flowers are upward facing, with linear to lance shaped green leaves on the stem. Plant tulips throughout the garden to extend the blooming time. This measured tulip mixture, or “blend”, consists of several varieties of Flag tulips, which compliment each other perfectly. They are classified as ‘triumph tulips. ‘ The colors remind us of Easter colors, hence the name “Easter Basket Mixture. ” The blooms are large, angular cup-shaped, and brightly colored on sturdy stems, withstanding wind and rain. We picked the best varieties to make up this Easter Basket look. To ensure optimal results, allow adequate space and sunlight, plant at the appropriate depth, and feed with a well balanced fertilizer. Remove the flowers as soon as they go, but allow the leaves to yellow before removing. Best planted in late fall. Some gardeners treat tulips as annuals. For an informal look, plant in groups in natural swathes or bouquets. In USDA zones 8-10, refrigerate the bulbs for no less then eight weeks. In the garden, plant them before frost, but not as early as in the northern part of the country. Planting them in a lightly shaded area will keep them cool and prolong blooming.
