Description
The icy white of the double Tulip 'Mount Tacoma' lets its peony-like blooms shine clearly in your spring garden—sometimes even after the sun has gone down. Yet there’s nothing cold about these snowy flowers. The double layers of pure white petals open into a wide fluffy flower with a warm heart of gold. It also appeals to two of your senses—not only is it a pleasure for the eye but it will also add fragrance to the spring air. Tulip 'Mount Tacoma' adds a special charm to borders or edging displays, or gives a touch of softness in a container.
Tulip 'Mount Tacoma' is a perennial powerhouse! Its broadly lance-shaped green leaves add a touch of class and its double, peony-like flowers are a sight to behold. White with a few hints of pale yellow-green, this queen of the spring stands at a commanding 45cm high.
