Notes
'Red Cap' tulip (Tulipa 'Red Cap') 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 purple-red flowers open from early to late spring. The stems reach about 22 inches tall, so the blooms work well in a vase.
Pairs well with Mount Hood daffodil, Little bluestem, and Singing In The Rain peony.
