Double Peony Ice Cream Tulip Bulbs

Double Peony Ice Cream Tulip Bulbs

The unusual form of the Ice Cream Double Peony Tulip creates a sweet sensation in flower beds, borders and cut-flower displays. The Ice Cream Tulip's white petals emerge from a base of deep pink petals. The blooms do not open completely giving the impression of an ice cream cone. Growing 12-16 inches tall, Ice Cream Tulip bulbs bloom in late spring. A perennial favorite, these spectacular blooms are also known as peony tulips due to their large number of petals. Due to their size, they perform best when protected from severe wind and rain. For maximum impact, plant Ice Cream tulip bulbs in groups. These bulbs perform best when planted in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade.

Is it a snow cone or an ice cream cone?!

Submitted 10 months ago

Ah-mazing! We live near an elementary school and I am always finding fun things to plant just to hear their commentary as they walk by. These did not disappoint, "look at the ice cream cone flowers she has this year!!! No! It looks like a snow cone! But it won't taste good! Eww!" Perfect way to start my morning chucking at the kiddos as I sit inside listening to their commentary!

It's perfection!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

These tulips are very pretty but the head is too heavy for the stem causing them to fall over. Some of them grew with crooked stems as they tried to support the too-heavy flower.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Disappointed with these tulips

I was so looking forward to seeing these gorgeous tulips bloom. But….they emerged but grew only about 5 inches tall and never bloomed. Do you have any explanation for this? I am sooooo disappointed.

Merchant Response

Thank you for leaving a review of the Double Peony Tulip Ice Cream. We are truly sorry to hear that this item failed to grow to your expectations. Tulips can experience stunted growth for a variety of reasons, but one of the most common reasons is if the bulbs did not get enough chill time during the Winter due to warmer than normal temperatures. We have an excellent No-Risk Guarantee on our plants. One of our Customer Care agents will be reaching out to you soon with a positive resolution.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

I am not an experienced gardener, but I saw these tulips and had to order the bulbs. I think squirrels might have stolen a couple, but they came up so beautiful! These are a great showpiece in my flower beds!

Not So Nice

Somewhat disappointing as the bright colorful tulips were not very long lasting. The colors quickly faded and the white turned ugly brown quickly.

Great tulips. Very different from the "normal" tulip shape.

In the picture it shows them with a dark pink outer petals. In my garden they were very light pink and weren't as dramatic as the picture. They did bloom well and were long lasting.

Cute Ice Cream tulips, but the stems were a bit short for my garden.
