Notes

'Madame Lefeber' tulip (Tulipa 'Madame Lefeber') 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 red blooms open from early to late spring. Plants reach about 16 inches tall, so they fit well near the front of a bed.

Pairs well with Ice Follies daffodil, Anise hyssop, and Many Happy Returns peony.
