Notes

'Yellow Purissima' tulip (Tulipa 'Yellow Purissima') 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 in early to late spring and grows 12 to 24 inches tall. Bees visit the blooms, so it also suits a pollinator garden.

Pairs well with Apricot Beauty tulip, Armenian grape hyacinth, and Fortissimo daffodil.
