Strike Up The Band Perennial Tulip Collection

Product Details

The music is hard to ignore when the primary colors of these 2 Perennial Tulips start to play. The brilliant blossoms of our Red Perennial Tulip mark time with the equally large, buttery Yellow Perennial Tulip. On sunny days they open wide to reveal black centers with pencil-thin outlines of yellow or red. Strike Up the Band Perennial Tulip Collection includes 12 bulbs of each, 24 total, labeled. Midseason. Covers about 6 sq ft. Exclusive.

We have identified a series of Darwin Hybrid Tulips that has proven, in years of trials, to provide up to 3 years of splendid bloom, with bud counts actually increasing for the first 3 years. Though these sturdy varieties will never have the permanence of Daffodils, they far surpass the performing life of most Tulips. To ensure optimum success with this remarkable strain, we recommend you provide the basics of good Tulip culture: Deep planting, a regular spring and fall feeding with a bulb fertilizer, deadheading after bloom, allowing the leaves to yellow before removing, and minimal watering in summer. Your reward will be a display that will ignite your spring garden for years.
