Light

Full sun to part shade.

Water

Water once at planting. Keep summer beds dry.

Planting and soil

Plant October to November, 6 in. deep.

Feeding

Bulb fertilizer at planting.

Pruning

Deadhead after bloom; leave the leaves until they yellow.

Through the year

Late spring flowers, after most other tulips. Dormant by summer.

If something's off

Doubles hold rain; heavy storms can bend them. Squirrels and deer, as usual.

White, double, and frayed at the edges.

Fully double white flowers up to 4 inches across with finely fringed petal edges and a faint green flush at the base. Short stems keep the heavy blooms upright.

Why we stock it: Late-season white that looks like it came from a florist.
