Notes

'Palmyra' tulip (Tulipa 'Palmyra') 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 blooms are brown-purple and open from early to late spring. Plants grow about 16 inches tall, so they fit well near the front of a bed. Hybris B.V. bred it.

Pairs well with Bridal Crown daffodil, Shirley Temple peony, and Fire and Ice hosta.
