Backed by a vase-shaped upright clump of blue-green foliage that frames the double blooms. Growing 16-24 inches tall and flowering throughout the late spring season. Cold-hardy and fast-growing, these fall-planted spring-flowering ephemerals are easy to grow!

Planting and Application:

The Double Peony Tulip blend adds its voluminous beauty to your beds and borders each spring.

Your Cottage garden, mixed perennial borders, and spring Rock gardens all become showy visions of grandeur! Plant around your mailbox or a garden bench to highlight your garden's features! Try forcing your bulbs indoors in a pretty shallow tray, or mixed with other perennial fall-planted bulbs in the late winter and enjoy a pretty table centerpiece to welcome spring in the winter!

Keep it small and space-saving with container gardens and mixed planters on your porch for a seasonal spring planter on either side of your front door or around your back seating areas where you can enjoy their heavy scent close by.

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Double Peony Tulips do their very best in a well-drained location in full to partial sun. Tulips do not like continuously wet soil so water newly planted bulbs very well and you shouldn't have to water again unless it gets very dry that fall, or during summers when you have extensive heat and drought. Top-dress with a 3-4 inch deep layer of mulch to hold in soil moisture more consistently and to insulate the perennial bulbs.

Deadhead the flower heads once they fade but let the foliage remain to make food for the bulbs. Trim away the leaves and remove them from the area once they turn yellow. Apply an early spring application of bulb food.

Tips on Planting Tulip Bulbs

Plant your Tulip Bulbs in the fall about 6 to 8 weeks before a hard freeze (or anytime in the autumn when the ground is still workable.). Place the bulbs in a hole with the pointy end upward and at least 8 inches deep (about 3x the length of the bulb), spaced about 4-6 inches apart.
