Notes
'Royal Pretender' tulip (Tulipa 'Royal Pretender') 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. It grows about 22 inches tall and bears red flowers from early to late spring. Sj. Schouten bred it, and the blooms last well in a vase.
