Colorful Bouquets
Renowned for their large, brilliantly-colored blooms and elegant-shaped flowers, the red-and-white striped, candy-colored Darwin Tulips are eye-catching.

Tulip General Information

Darwin tulips have large brilliantly colored blooms. Their strong stems and beautifully shaped flowers make them ideal for cut flower arrangements.

Tulip Plant Care

Plant in well drained soil at least 6" deep and 6" apart. Foliage should not be removed until withered as energy is being stored for the next growing season. Stems can be cut back to maintain appearances if desired. Interested in forcing bulbs? Visit our Useful Links page.
