Beautiful Bulb Combinations

Start your spring landscape with a big show by creating dramatic plant combinations. We'll show you what to plant.

Rainbow of Tulips

Create a sweeping swath of color with a mix of tulip varieties interplanted with easy-growing perennials, such as lamb's-ears, geranium, and Siberian bugloss, that form a textured tapestry underneath the tulips. The colorful mix of tulips shown here includes 'Don Quichotte', 'Yokohama', 'Van Eyck', 'Ad Rem', 'Menton', 'Spring Green', 'Orange Emperor', 'Jewel of Spring', and 'Apeldoorn'.

Test Garden Tip: Rather than lining bulbs in regimented rows, create a natural appearance by planting them in clusters or groupings.
