Notes
'Jeffrey' tulip (Tulipa 'Jeffrey') 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 dark purple-red and open from early to late spring. They stand about 18 inches tall, so they work well in the middle of a bed. A. de Ridder bred it.
Pairs well with Thalia daffodil, Immortality iris, and Little bluestem.
