Double Fringed Tulip Snow Crystal

Double Fringed Tulip Snow Crystal

88%
of respondents would recommend this to a friend
Huge, pure white, double blooms with fringed petals make a big impact in the late spring garden and a vase. Double Fringed Tulip Snow Crystal's outer petals have a green stripe that runs through the bottom. When fully open, the blooms reach up to 4½" across. Due to their large flower size, these tulips perform best when protected from severe wind and rain. Growing 12-14" tall, Snow Crystal makes a dramatic statement when planted in beds and borders. For best results, plant tulip bulbs in well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade.

I don't know if it was the weird spring weather, or the quality of the bulbs (which has never been a problem before), but all of my Double Fringed Snow Crystal Tulips rotted after coming up. I only had a handful that successfully bloomed. Most just dried up and rotted away.

Fortunately, we have a No-Risk Guarantee on our bulbs. One of our Customer Care agents will be reaching out to you soon with a positive resolution.

First year trying these Snow Crystals out

Submitted 3 years ago

By CuspofCap

From Alexandria, VA

Wow! I couldn't be more pleased with how these little beauties turned out. They're not as pure white as I thought they'd be, but they're spectacular nonetheless. They start out small, then explode into almost peony like flowers. I paired them with New Santa fringed tulips. I hope the Snow Crystals come out this great next year in spring '23. We'll see!

Q
Do the bulbs need to be dug up and replanted each season?
Asked by Cake
Verified Reply - AngelaMost gardeners will plant new bulbs each year. If you decide to try to reuse the bulbs, dig them up in the early summer after they go dormant. Store in sand in a cool, dark and dry location and plant again in fall. Reblooming results will be variable.Was this answer helpful to you
