Dasystemon Tarda Mini Botanical Tulip

Dasystemon tarda is one of Pam's Faves this season. Here's what she has to say:

These little beauties are like sunshine in flower form! Whenever I see them blooming in early to mid-spring I simply have to smile. They are so cheerful and uplifting and a true reminder of the positive power that spring can have on our feelings of hope and renewal.

This is such a cheerful flower and a real delight to see growing in the garden. It will multiply and spread over the years so choose a cozy little spot where it can 'do its thing'.

For those seeking a truly natural look these miniature beauties are the right choice. Derived from wild species and commercially propagated, Mini Botanical tulips naturalize well and you can leave them in the same spot for years where they will form a beautiful floral blanket when planted close together. They are perfect for rock gardens, border and containers. And don't let their diminutive size fool you, they are some of the longest flowering tulip varieties available, sometimes flowering for weeks on end!
