Collection E: The Early-to-Late Purple Tulip Garden
The color purple is one of the best for the garden. It can be a calming neutral to subtly ground the garden, or a dramatic contrasting focal point causing other colors to pop and sparkle. The spectrum of these purple varieties yields color that is both cool and hot, worthy of inclusion in every garden.
Estimated planting area: 50 square feet. Bulb size: 12 cm/up. Height: 14" to 24". Bloom time: April/May. Plant 6" to 8" deep and 6" apart. Horticultural zones: 3-7. Please note that our collections are shipped in mid-October. (Each variety's photo appears in order as listed from left to right and top to bottom.)

• 50 Lily Flowering Tulip Purple Dream: Deep purple flushed hazy blue, small ivory base. 22" to 24".

Tulips are The Art & Soul of Spring.
Tulip Horticultural Tips
- Information
Our special collections have been created so that you may experiment with wonderful companion flower bulbs in smaller quantities at exceptionally low prices. All varieties are individually packaged and labeled. Horticultural information and individual descriptions are included under each variety's listing on our website. The estimated square footage for each collection is based on a single layer, solid planting at the rate of four large bulbs per square foot or nine small bulbs per square foot. The planting coverage will vary based on your particular landscape design. Determine the square footage of your garden by multiplying its width by its depth. Collections are shipped mid-October. All bloom times are approximated for horticultural zone 5 in a normal, prolonged spring. Please note that spring heat spikes can cause flowers to bloom early and perhaps a bit shorter although they will continue to grow in height while they are in bloom. Adjust the estimated bloom times for your clients' gardens according to their horticultural zone or microclimate.
