Double Peony Tulip Ice Cream

The unusual form of the Ice Cream Double Peony Tulip creates a sweet sensation in flower beds, borders and cut-flower displays. The Ice Cream Tulip's white petals emerge from a base of deep pink petals. The blooms do not open completely giving the impression of an ice cream cone. Growing 12-16 inches tall, Ice Cream Tulip bulbs bloom in late spring. A perennial favorite, these spectacular blooms are also known as peony tulips due to their large number of petals. Due to their size, they perform best when protected from severe wind and rain. For maximum impact, plant Ice Cream tulip bulbs in groups. These bulbs perform best when planted in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade.
