Tulip Big Chief
Known for its enormous flowers, Big Chief is a 1959 award winner with big flowers of iridescent rosy-salmon with an exterior silver sheen and a soft yellow base. It is another one of those varieties that defies any one simple description. It looks different in brilliant sunshine than it does in filtered sunlight, and from when its buds first open to when the flowers start to fade away. Tulip Class: Giant Darwin Hybrid. Bulb size: 12 cm/up. Mid-April to May. HZ: 3-7. Height: 24".

Giant Darwin Hybrid Tulips
Sometimes referred to as perennial tulips by others, Giant Darwin Hybrid Tulips were introduced to the United States by John Scheepers, our great uncle, in 1951. Their huge, vibrant flowers on strong stems are known to return for multiple years when planted in a nice sunny spot with good drainage, fertilized regularly and not cut for bouquets. Flowering from mid-April into May, these stately tulips are excellent for spectacular garden displays and lovely cut flower arrangements. Top size bulbs: at least 12 cm. Bloom time: Mid-April into May. Plant 6" to 8" deep and 6" apart. Horticultural zones 3-7. Height: 18" to 26" depending on the variety.
