Description
Blue is the rarest color in flowers, and this mix gets about as close to the richness of blue as you can get with tulips. Some purples, some reddish blooms, but the bluest of the blues, too--including the famous one with contrast-color white edges. Plant these bulbs with beside some whites and watch the floral fireworks.

These blue and purple flowers are a great contrast to the brighter reds and yellows of many spring flowers. The mix is well worth the price. The flowers are wonderful in a vase on the dinner table or outside in the garden. They work well planted with other tulip bulbs and are easy to grow. I used the bulb fertilizer sold here and I believe that helped the growing process. A good addition to any garden and good for any level gardener.

I was very excited about purchasing these tulip bulbs. I thought that it was a great price for 50 bulbs. We planted them all in the fall. They were a good sized bulb and healthy looking. Our spring has really been up & down in upstate NY, so only a few have come up. From what I can see the color is really nice. I've only seen the one shade of purple though, not a variety. There are still a lot of them that have not sent up a flower yet, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

      Comments about American Meadows Triumph Tulip Bulbs Blue Moon Mix:

      I planted some of the Triumph Tulips Blue Moon Mix in a few containers that I forced in the garage last winter and I was very pleased with the results. I gave a few containers as gifts and I keep a couple for myself to enjoy indoors. The rest of the bulbs I planted outside along with the existing 3-year-old variegated tulips and the result is amazing.

              These really are the most beautiful tulips I have ever planted! The only reason I didn't give these 5 stars is there are no true blue as shown in the photo. Maybe next year...

                                These tulips are easy to grow and were different than anything I planted before. They came up along the sidewalk where I planted them and had a long bloom span. I bought 50 and shared them with others, but will buy more for myself next year. They are maintenance free-which is perfect for me.

                                      I planted these bulbs in the fall and had forgotten about them until a few weeks ago when they bloomed in all their purple glory. They've been going strong for three weeks and the ones I've cut for indoor vases have been tenacious. I will definitely order more for next fall.

                                          I love tulips for an easy, colorful, low maintenance addition to a garden. I especially appreciate them in groups, a line or a cluster can really draw the eye in a way very little else can, and this makes them a great tool for a landscaper. We used this batch along the front porch line of a house that was butter yellow with dark green trim. The blues and purples were really rich and dramatic against the yellow and created a lovely trim to the house. My only complaint was the were not all blue and purple! There were a couple of red ones and one pink mixed in...it was not the end of the world, but consistancy is nice.

                                              These are pretty, and have bloomed very successfully, but I wanted to note that the color depicted in the photo is not what bloomed for me. There were NO blues, NO dark purples. All flowers were either med purple/hot pink, or they included a white fringe. Maybe I just got unlucky with my bag. Nonetheless, they are attractive and very healthy looking. Many have multiple buds. But apparently it's not reliable you'll get the "blue moon" palette.

                                                Planted most and forced a few. Wish that I had forced more of these lovely colored bulbs. They have been blooming for about 3 weeks indoors far exceeding my expectations.
