Notes

'Clara Butt' tulip (Tulipa 'Clara Butt') 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 salmon pink and open from early to late spring. E.H. Krelage & Son bred it. Plant it in groups for the best show, and cut stems for a vase.

Pairs well with Bridal Crown daffodil, Fanal astilbe, and Lemon Chiffon peony.
