Van Zyverden Set of 25 Bulbs Tulips Easter Basket Mixture

Product Description

Tulips are the indispensable blooms of the spring garden as they bring it to life! They are unique in the range of size, shape and bold colors found in almost every color spectrum that only tulips provide. Tulips are suitable for a wide range of plantings, are excellent in the rock garden, in formal beds, as elegant cut flowers and for containers. They can be used in nearly any garden design scheme. Flowers are upward facing, with linear to lance-shaped green leaves on the stem. Tulip descriptions can become quite technical, as they are grouped into 15 different divisions, describing the petals, stamens and leaves in detail. Plant several different varieties of tulips throughout the garden to extend the blooming time.
This measured tulip mixture, or "blend", consists of several varieties of Flag tulips, which compliment each other perfectly. They are classified as "triumph tulips". However, the name does them no justice. The colors remind us of Easter colors, hence the name "Easter Basket Mixture." The blooms are large, angular cup-shaped and brightly colored on sturdy stems withstanding wind and rain. We picked the best varieties to make up this Easter Basket look.
