Big Blooms, Great Curb Appeal - (Size:12+ cm) Fall Planting Bulbs, SHIPPING STATE THIS FALL

Tulip. The quintessential spring bulb, tulips come in just about every color known to gardeners. Tulips need a long period of winter chill to bloom well so gardeners in warmer climates will need to refrigerate their bulbs for 8 to 10 weeks before planting in fall. USDA Hardiness Zones: 3 to 8 (to 10 if chilled),  Shipping

Detailed Description
Go ahead. . . admit it. You love bright red strawberries, cardinals, fresh cherries, fire engine red lipstick and red Valentine roses. Paint the town red - or at least your part of it - with a sweep of Red Parade along your walkway or fence line. An ageless classic that simply sizzles. Red Parade is an excellent choice for parts of the garden that tend to be breezy as the shorter height stands up well in these conditions.
