Try planting these larger-flowered tulips that will return faithfully year after year.

What year did you plant these, Rita? How long have they lasted in your garden?

I wrote this long ago and sent it but the article is just getting published now. Those Emperor Tulips have been coming up every spring since and it was many, many years ago.

Yay! I love tulips, but rarely buy them because of the expensive annual investment. Thank you!

Think the Emperor tulips are a Fosteriana Tulip, which is a species I have some Kaufmania tulips that have been coming up for the last 7 years, they are also a species tulip.
Pic of Humilis Violacea which should be around for several years.

Grandchildren are my greatest joy.

I have had Red Emperor repeat for several years. My most perennial Tulips are Darwin Hybrids.....when the Deer don't eat them........
