What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Muscari & Tulip Baby Shower Blend for its successful, curated aesthetic. The soft, harmonious pastel palette of whites, pinks, and purples perfectly captures the desired gentle look.

Reviewers frequently report high viability, noting that most bulbs produced robust, vibrant blooms, creating a magical spring display.

Know before you buy
These bulbs should be planted in the fall before the ground freezes. This allows them to establish roots during the winter months so they are ready to bloom in mid-spring.
Yes, this blend is specifically noted as container-friendly. Ensure your pot has adequate drainage holes and use a high-quality potting mix to support the growth of both the tulips and the muscari.
For the best results, plant them in an area that receives full sun to partial sun. While they can tolerate some shade, they will perform best and produce the most vibrant blooms with at least six hours of direct sunlight.
As a general rule for spring-blooming bulbs, plant the tulips about 6 to 8 inches deep and the smaller muscari bulbs about 3 to 4 inches deep. Always ensure the pointed end of the bulb is facing upward.
Tulips and Muscari are perennial bulbs, meaning they can return in subsequent years if planted in the correct hardiness zones (4-8). However, many gardeners treat tulips as annuals for the most reliable, uniform display each spring.
Space the tulip bulbs about 4 to 6 inches apart to give them room to grow. The smaller muscari bulbs can be planted closer together, roughly 2 to 3 inches apart, to create a lush, clustered look.
