Notes
'Swan Wings' tulip (Tulipa 'Swan Wings') 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. The white flowers are fragrant and open from early to late spring. Plants reach 12 to 24 inches tall, so they make a nice cut flower for a vase. Segers Bros bred it.
Pairs well with White Triumphator tulip, Barcelona tulip, and Spiked speedwell.
