Notes

'Negrita' tulip (Tulipa 'Negrita') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It blooms in early to late spring. The stems reach 12 to 24 inches tall, so the flowers work well in a vase.

Pairs well with Jack Frost Siberian bugloss, Spring Green tulip, and Angelique tulip.
