This bulb should be planted in the Fall. Due to the seasonality of bulbs, items are not always in stock. Call for availability. Sword-like foliage on a sturdy stem supports the most recognizable flower imported from The Netherlands. Plant in well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Exposure to full sun will bring out the rich colors that Tulips offer. Partial shade will enable a longer blooming period and still offer a colorful addition to any garden. Double Late Tulips look like peonies due to the large blooms they produce in late spring, 16-18 inches.
