Notes

'Strong Gold' tulip (Tulipa 'Strong Gold') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. 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 blooms from early to late spring. The plants reach 12 to 24 inches tall, so they fit well in the middle of a bed.

Pairs well with Daffodil, Jack Frost Siberian bugloss, and Nodding onion.
