Double Early 'Columbus' Tulip – Fall Bulb Preorder (10 Bulbs)

Double the Petals, Double the Joy

(Fall Bulb Preorder – 10 Bulbs, Pickup Starts September 15th)

One look and you’ll see why this tulip gets double takes. ‘Columbus’ bursts into early spring with layers of ruffled raspberry-pink petals edged in creamy white—an unapologetically lush bloom that feels more like a peony than a tulip. She’s bold, joyful, and early, waking up the garden just when you need color most.
Plant them with your pansies in the fall—then forget about them… until spring shows up with a sweet little surprise.

Available for preorder now—pickup begins September 15. Limited quantities.

🌿Perfect Pairings for Tulip ‘Columbus’

Pair ‘Columbus’ with blooms that soften or deepen her bold color.

💙Lycoris sprengeri ‘Electric Blue Surprise Lily’
Pale lavender blooms edged in electric pink show up when you least expect them—late summer, when the garden craves a second act. A surreal counterpoint to Columbus’s early flash.
❤️Lycoris radiata ‘Red Spider Lily’
These late-blooming red stunners curl and twist like flames rising through fall foliage. A dramatic foil to Columbus’s softness—together they stretch the show across seasons.
🤍Ranunculus Tecolote ‘Cloud Dancer’
Ruffled white petals edged in blush make ‘Cloud Dancer’ a dream companion for Columbus. Plant them side by side for a luxe, layered bloom sequence from early spring into late.

Don’t just fill space—create drama. Columbus is your garden’s grand entrance.
