Now, here's a show-stopper! Bright red flames flare up from the primrose-yellow base of this fabulous Triumph Tulip. Its unusual flowers are prized for arrangements and are often forced for Easter gifts. Create a color explosion in your border by pairing 'Holland Queen' with Darwin Hybrid Tulips, such as yellow 'Conqueror' and 'Red Impression'. Midseason.

The very name Tulip is magic, for everyone knows this fine genus. We call these gay flowers the "lipsticks of the garden" because they provide a finishing touch that brings spring borders to life. Plant Tulips in well-drained, good garden soil. Full sun is recommended (at least six hours or more). For more information on Tulip care, click "Growing Guide."
