Key Characteristics and Benefits of Growing Angelique Double Late Tulips

• Romantic Blooms: Large, double-layered flowers with soft pink and cream hues create a vintage, peony-like effect.
• Fragrant Flowers: Lightly scented blossoms add sensory charm to gardens and bouquets.
• Late Blooming: Extends tulip color in the landscape into late spring when other varieties have faded.
• Perfect for Cutting: Excellent for fresh floral arrangements with long-lasting, elegant blooms.
• Versatile Garden Use: Ideal for mixed borders, spring containers, cutting gardens, and mass plantings.

Growing Angelique Tulip Bulbs

Plant Angelique tulip bulbs in fall, about 6–8 weeks before the first hard frost. Set bulbs 5 inches deep and 2 inches apart in well-drained soil. Select a sunny to partially shaded location for optimal blooming and healthy foliage.

Climate and Soil Requirements

Well-suited for USDA zones 3–7, Angelique tulips benefit from a cold dormancy period in winter. Use organically enriched, sandy loam soil to prevent rot and promote root development.

Sunlight and Watering

Water well after planting. Maintain moderate moisture during the growing and blooming season, then reduce watering once blooms fade. Allow the foliage to yellow and wither naturally to feed the bulbs for next year’s display.

Care and Maintenance

Apply a mulch layer in fall to insulate bulbs. Deadhead spent flowers post-blooming and consider lifting bulbs every few years for division and storage in warmer climates.
