Double Early Tulips
Why Double Early Tulips are Excellent
They tend to bloom early in your tulip season but they have relatively short stems (10 to 12 inches) so they are not as susceptible to bad weather as later flowering doubles.
How To Garden Design With Them
Use these bulbs in any garden space but they are particularly well suited for container use because of their brilliant color range.
Their short stature also makes them useful for the early spring rock garden.
Plant them 2 inches apart.
