Van Zyverden Tulip Red Shine Set of 12 Bulbs Red Part Sun

Tulips are the indispensable blooms of the spring garden, as they bring it to life! They are unique in range of size, shape, and bold color, found in almost every color spectrum that only tulips provide. Tulips are good for a wide range of plantings, are excellent in the rock garden, in formal beds, as elegant cut flowers, and good for containers. They can be used in nearly any garden design scheme. Flowers are upward facing, with linear to lance shaped green leaves on the stem. Let’s just enjoy them for what they are – an incredible source of inexpensive color for the garden. Red Shine – a lily flowering tulip – has goblet-shaped flowers with pointed, out-curving, reflexed petals. The foliage is broad and greyish-green, producing gleaming red blooms. On sunny days, the flowers open completely, which gives them a lily-like look. Long lasting, graceful, and elegant. Stunning when swaying in the wind.

Tulip descriptions can become quite technical, as they are grouped into 15 different divisions – describing the petals, stamens, and leaves in detail. Plant several different varieties of tulips throughout the garden to extend the blooming time. Fun Fact: It typically takes about six years to grow a tulip from seed to flower.
