Notes

'Helga Jone' tulip (Tulipa 'Helga Jone') 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. Its crimson pink flowers open from early to late spring. E.H. Krelage & Son bred it, and bees can visit the blooms for pollen.

Pairs well with Ice Follies daffodil, Picture peony, and Ernest Markham clematis.
