Notes
'Showwinner' tulip (Tulipa 'Showwinner') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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 grows about 10 inches tall, so it suits the front of a bed. Dark pink-red flowers open from early to late spring.
Pairs well with Pickwick Dutch crocus, Daffodil, and Bridal Bouquet peony.
