Notes
'Eros' tulip (Tulipa 'Eros') 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. Purple blooms open from early to late spring on stems about 22 inches tall. Zocher & Co. bred it, so you can plant it in groups for a bold show.
Pairs well with Ice Follies daffodil, Pinky Winky panicle hydrangea, and Raspberry Sundae peony.
