(24-26" tall) Describing 'Dordogne' Single Late Tulip is like recounting a sunset. In a word, the blooms are stunning - plant in masses for dramatic impact. 'Dordogne' combines well with other late-season tulips in shades of burgundy and dark purple. Don't let those long, graceful stems fool you. 'Dordogne' stands up well to wind and rain. They also have a long vase-life. The best color emerges when bulbs are planted in full sun, though plants tolerate some shade. Hardy in zones 3 through 8, this variety performs well in the south and western states where many other tulips struggle. Tulips are easy to grow, their primary demand being well-draining soil. Chilled bulbs can also be forced for springtime decor or to grow tulips in climates outside hardiness zones 3 to 8.
