Description
Growing Single Tulips: The classic cup-shaped flowers of Single Tulips are the essence of spring. Single Early Tulips grow about 10-14 inches tall and bloom in early spring, creating a colorful pairing for Daffodils. Tall and elegant Single Late Tulips, also called French Tulips, grow up to a dramatic 28 inches tall, gracefully swaying in the breeze. Plant as many as you can for a spectacular display in the garden, and to enjoy in colorful cut flower arrangements. Plant bulbs in fall in well-drained soil. Tulips produce their best color in full sun, but flowers will last longer with some shade. Single Tulips can be forced indoors and used for springtime decor. In warmer climates (zones 9-10) outside their hardiness zone, Single Tulips can be chilled before planting.
