Notes

'Kaiserwalzer' tulip (Tulipa 'Kaiserwalzer') 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 on stems about 12 inches tall. Outer petals blend salmon and mandarin red, while the inside glows vermilion with a large black base. The leaves are mottled.

Pairs well with Mount Hood daffodil, Kansas peony, and Little bluestem.
