Notes

'Insulinde' tulip (Tulipa 'Insulinde') 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 open in early to late spring and reach about 20 inches tall. Each bloom is violet on a yellow ground, which makes a bold color mix in a vase or a bed.

Pairs well with Ice Follies daffodil, Fanal astilbe, and Little bluestem.
