What distinguishes Tulip Mount Tacoma from other white tulips? A peony flowering tulip, full of pure white petals really set this tulip apart. It’s hard not to be taken with the purity and delicate billowing shape.
What can you plant with Tulip Mount Tacoma?
The green accents of the outer petals give you an indication of how well these tulip bulbs sit in the fresh green foliage of early summer perennials.
White is such an easy colour to mix with.
- Starting with other white tulips; use Vestas for a contrast of shape and height
- Try Black Hero or Queen of Night for the ultimate contrast
- Use soft pinks and creams for a fresh and elegant collection
- Or use as an accent amongst purples and maroons
Can you you leave tulips in the ground all year long?
Some you can, Darwin hybrids and species tulips do very well. However, despite the fact tulips are fully hardy (and need cold weather over winter) large tulips like Tulip Mount Tacoma need big bulbs to grow to their full potential. Bulbs left in the ground can produce many smaller bulbs that will not be big enough for a good display the next year.
