Ranked as one of the top rewarded tulips for its excellence and easy culture, award-winning Tulip ‘China Pink’ is a highly esteemed lily-flowered tulip with soft pink, pointed and slightly reflexed petals, and a lighter base. Blooming in the late spring garden, this tulip provides an elegant and graceful display when swaying in the spring breeze!
A symbol of spring, tulips are the most popular spring bulbs and most gardeners reserve them a spot in the garden or containers. Grown for their attractive, vibrantly colored flowers, there are currently over 3,000 registered varieties, which are divided into fifteen groups, mostly based on the flower type, size, and blooming period of the tulip.
What makes Lily-Flowered Tulips different from other varieties are their slender flowers with often pointed, recurving petals. The flower stems are thin and not very sturdy, making them susceptible to wind damage. Most bloom in late spring, and a few in mid-spring. Some make good cut flowers, others are fragrant. But all are incredibly beautiful and should be considered in your seasonal plantings. They typically grow up to 16-24 in. tall (40-60 cm).
