The tulip is a stalwart of the late-spring garden. There are hundreds to choose from, including traditional, single cup-shaped varieties, double-flowered cultivars and those with elegant, goblet-shaped flowers. Tulips grow best in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. However, they don’t always come back the following year and are therefore often best treated as annuals.
Tulipa ‘Ice Cream’ is an unusual cultivar, which as its name suggests, resembles a dessert. The double, peony shaped flowers reveal densely packed white petals within green petals with broad red edges. The flowers of Tulipa 'Ice Cream' are set off to perfection by the broad, wavy leaves.
