The Van Zyverden Super Sized Queen of Night Bulb Tulips are the indispensable blooms of the spring garden, as they bring it to life! They are unique in the range of size, shape, and bold color found in almost every color spectrum, that only tulips provide. These elegant tulips are suitable for a wide range of plantings, are excellent in the rock garden, in formal beds, as elegant cut flowers, and for containers. They can be used in nearly any garden design scheme. These beautiful flowers are upward facing, with linear to lance-shaped green leaves on the stem. Tulip descriptions can become quite technical, as they are grouped into 15 different divisions, describing the petals, stamens, and leaves in detail. Plant several different varieties of tulips throughout the garden to extend the blooming time. The tulip Queen of Night is a single, late division, almost-black tulip. It is the closest to black any of the tulip hybridizers have ever come, even though it's really a deep, deep purple. It took decades of work to breed this variety, which is now quite famous and a best-seller.
