Spring Combination Ideas, Bulb Combinations, Plant Combinations, Flowerbeds Ideas, Spring Borders
Here is fascinating combination to cheer you up and impress your neighbors in late spring! Easy to replicate and low care, this bulb combination includes America's favorite tulip, Tulip 'Angelique', which elegantly emerges from a sea of airy Forget-Me-Nots (Myosotis). Selected here is Myosotis 'Royal Blue', a dwarf variety with sky blue flowers and white or pale yellow centers.
A planting idea that is ideal for beds and borders, edging or containers. Tulip 'Angelique' makes excellent cut flowers and looks fabulous in a vase too. Enjoy!
