Pack of 8 Bulbs
Plant Tulipa Championship® bulbs, a highly ornamental tulip, in early to mid-fall, and in early to late spring this spring ephemeral blooms in showy fully double flowers. Borne on long, elegant stems, the beautifully bicolored bloomsred with delicate, white-frosted marginsare exceptionally long-lasting and make lovely, fragrant cuts for spring bouquets.
Championship has an upright habit. It naturalizes easily, with its sprawling clumps of narrow, linear foliage and showy blooms appearing year after year, possibly for decades in ideal conditions. Tulips are especially useful for erosion control in spring rains. Consider planting in large sweeping drifts in open woodland areas, in masses under deciduous trees, or in smaller groupings in beds and borders or in front of shrubs. Tulips mix well with ground covers and other spring-blooming bulbs but also make a great container plant and can be forced for cheery indoor blooms in winter.
Championship, a cold hardyto Zone 3bulbous perennial, is easy to grow and maintain. The plant grows best in sunny to partly shady locations with average to fertile, slightly acidic to neutral, well-draining soil. Tulips benefit from yearly fertilization.
