USDA Hardiness Planting Zones

To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.

If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).

Plant Information

Our bulb collections will easily give you beautiful, harmonious results in garden beds and floral arrangements. We plan, you plant: each collection is curated by our gardening experts, featuring flower groupings with complementary colors, heights, and bloom times. Tall and graceful tulips produce extra-large flowers in rich, saturated colors. Tulips produce their best color in full sun, but flowers will last longer with some shade. Plant bulbs in fall in full sun with well-drained soil, where they can stay dry when dormant. After flowering is done, allow foliage to die back naturally to feed the bulbs for next season’s blooms.

The Tickled Pink Tulip Flower Bulb Collection covers roughly 6 sq. ft. if planted together and contains 52 bulbs:

'Pink Impression' Darwin Tulip – 20 bulbs
'Mount Tacoma' Double Late Tulip– 8 bulbs
'Elegant Lady' Lily Flowered Tulip - 10 bulbs
'Margarita' Double Early Tulip - 6 bulbs
'Mascotte' Fringed Tulip - 8 bulbs

*Plants are subject to change due to availability. If we make substitutions, we feature plants with similar attributes suitable to the collection design.

Planting & Care

What is a "Quality Bulb," and Why Does Bulb Quality Matter?

Flower bulbs come in a wide variety of sizes. It is important to get the largest, best quality bulbs you can find. Larger bulbs help to ensure success, producing larger and stronger plants with more flowers.

Several flower bulbs are part of the onion family, and because of this I like to use Onions as a representation of how important bulb size is. Which of the onions on your shelf go bad first? The smallest ones! Larger onions are more resilient, taking longer to dry out/rot and can withstand swings in temperature better. Flower bulbs are the same. Larger bulbs will withstand disease, draught, large amounts of moisture, and colder temperatures significantly better than the smaller ones.

Here at American Meadows we are committed to providing you with the highest quality bulbs. This means we do everything we can to source the largest bulbs possible. Below is a comparison of bulbs purchased from three different retail stores:

Each of the glass tubes contains 20 Dutch Master Daffodils. Starting from the left, the first tube is what is sold here at American Meadows, the middle tube was purchased at a local “Home Supply” box store, and the third is another online retailer. The difference is easily noticeable.

The next picture is the same comparison, but with Tulip Bulbs:

Again, our bulbs are quite a bit larger than other retailers.

Other things to be aware of when it comes to bulb quality is making sure they are firm and without signs of external damage or cracking. Do your best to avoid bulbs that are already growing and have shoots or freshly grown roots. This is difficult when purchasing online, but if you are ordering through a reputable company, they should be checking for these things regularly.

Next time you are looking to buy bulbs, think about how much time you put into planning and planting your garden and then anxiously waiting for your flowers to grow and bloom. Don’t be disappointed after all that effort by planting sub-par bulbs. Buy the largest, firmest, disease free bulbs you can afford, and you will have the best possible results.
