Notes
'Double Sugar' tulip (Tulipa 'Double Sugar') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. The flowers are fragrant and open from early to late spring. Plants reach 12 to 24 inches tall, so they work well near the front or middle of a bed.
Pairs well with Lilac Perfection tulip, Armenian grape hyacinth, and Jack Frost Siberian bugloss.
