A Magnificent Spring Border idea with 2 Fabulous Tulips
Spring Borders, Bulb Combinations, Perennial Combinations
Aren't those colorful dots rising above the level of the grass a fascinating sight? This beautiful border results from the combination of 2 tall tulip cultivars that will enchant your beds or borders in mid-late spring. Resembling Monet’s brushstrokes, with their subtle dots of tender ivory, rosy-purple and almost dark mahogany colors, they create a striking display in the garden.
A planting idea that is ideal for beds and borders, edging or containers. Enjoy!
