Tulip, Daydream

Tulip ‘Daydream’ is a stunning addition to any outdoor space! This large, sunny flower opens yellow with a rosy glow, then changes to shades of soft apricot and warm orange over time. Tulip ‘Daydream’ is usually closed in the morning and opens to resemble a poppy as the day goes along. This Darwin Hybrid tulip has large flowers on long, sturdy stems, making them delightful cut flowers. These tulips look best in mass plantings and also make excellent container plants.

Planting Instructions: The product should be planted immediately after received in the fall. In extremely warm climates, plant when the ground cools. You may plant earlier or later as long as the ground is not too warm or frozen. 1. Dig a hole 3-4 inches deep or two times the height of the bulb. 2. Set the bulbs firmly in place, with the pointed ends facing upward. 3. Cover the bulbs with soil and water thoroughly. Grow in sun in informal groupings of 5 or more bulbs. Plant bulbs in fall 3-4 inches deep or about two times the height of the bulb and 5" apart in well-drained soil with plenty of humus. Remove old flowers leaving as much stem and foliage as possible until they die down. Plant bulbs in containers with soil and cool at 40° for 15 weeks. Follow these easy to grow tips.
