Know before you buy
Yes, Ice Age tulips are reliable perennials, provided they receive the necessary cold temperatures during winter to trigger vernalization. If you live in a warmer climate, you will need to pre-chill the bulbs to ensure they bloom again the following spring.
Absolutely. Their 18-inch height makes them well-suited for containers, provided the pots have excellent drainage. Ensure the soil remains relatively dry after the initial planting and watering to prevent the bulbs from rotting.
These bulbs should be planted in the fall. This allows them to establish their root systems before the ground freezes, ensuring they are ready to produce their peony-like blooms by mid to late spring.
Yes, their fully double, peony-like white blooms make them an excellent choice for cut flower arrangements. Their sturdy stems and elegant appearance hold up well in a vase.
Ice Age tulips perform best in full sun to partial sun. For the most robust blooms, aim for a location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.
