Notes
'Blenda' tulip (Tulipa 'Blenda') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and average moisture. The flowers are dark rose with a white base and open from early to late spring. Plants reach about 18 inches tall, so they work well in the middle of a bed.
Pairs well with Thalia daffodil, Maiden pink, and Black Beauty peony.
