Taiwan Tulip Bulbs - COMING SEPTEMBER 7TH AT 5PM

Sale price$29.95

If you’re wishing you could have peonies in bloom in early May garden, planting Taiwan tulip bulbs in the fall is the next best thing! This exquisite variety looks almost exactly like a peony, with a double layer of bright coral pink petals, tipped with soft green stripes. This variety is one of our favorite finds from a recent trip to Holland, we’ve fallen in love with it both as a cut flower, and as a spectacular garden specimen.

If you want to perennialize your tulips, it’s important to leave at least two sets of leaves on the stem when harvesting to replenish the bulb and give it energy to bloom the following season. Here at Dahlia May, we grow our tulips for cut flower production, meaning that we treat our tulips as annuals, and pull up the entire plant, bulb and all, during harvest. In your home garden, there is no need to lift the bulb in the spring after flowering. Allow the foliage of your plant to die back naturally after blooming, as this process aids in feeding the bulb for the subsequent year.

We find that many specialty tulips do not typically perennialize well in the garden. You'll be able to enjoy their blooms for one spring, and blooming in any subsequent years can be a wonderful bonus.
