Notes

'Princess Victoria' tulip (Tulipa 'Princess Victoria') 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 dark pink-red flowers open from early to late spring on stems about 20 inches tall. Each petal has a small white edge at the top, and the inside is feathered blood red with purple anthers. J.F. van den Berg & Sons bred it.

Pairs well with Ice Follies daffodil, Many Happy Returns peony, and Cat's Pajamas nepeta.
