Notes
'Sunkist' tulip (Tulipa 'Sunkist') 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 blooms from early to late spring and stands about 22 inches tall. C.G. van Tubergen bred it, so it brings classic charm to a cottage garden.
Pairs well with Bridal Crown daffodil, Blanket flower, and Little bluestem.
