Tulip – Triumph – Hemisphere
Posted in: Flowers
Tulip – Triumph – HemisphereThe Tulip ‘Hemisphere’, ‘Tulipa triumph’, a fall planted bulb, is a new introduction this year. This variety has white petals and is painted with reddish-pink across the bloom. Triumph Tulips are the largest and one of the most important class of Tulips. They come in every possible shade of color possible for tulips, including some wonderful pastels. They are particularly esteemed for their beautiful, traditional “tulip” flower shape. Triumph Tulips have sturdy stems and withstand windy weather. They are great for cut flowers and they have a long vase life. These are mid sized tulips with compact leaves and shorter flower stems. They are ideal for pots or even a spring color hedge. Triumph tulips respond well to a cooling period of six weeks in the fridge prior to planting.

Fiberstone is a mixture of sand and stones cast into the surface using terrazzo-like techniques. The surface is then sandblasted and chemically treated, followed by an acid stain to give the appearance of aged stone. Since it is reinforced with a fiberglass backing, it remains light-weight and less fragile than concrete.
When ordering, please pick a material then a finish. Please allow 5 weeks for manufacturing and shipping.
