Fedco Seeds Mount Tacoma Tulip

The Mount Tacoma is a double late variety, meaning it features many layers of petals that create a full, peony-like appearance rather than the traditional single-cup shape. This heirloom variety is prized specifically for its ruffled, snow-white blooms that offer a more sophisticated, voluminous look in the garden.

You should plant these bulbs 8 to 10 inches deep. Planting at this depth helps protect the bulbs from temperature fluctuations and ensures they have enough stability to support their heavy, double blooms.

Yes, they are hardy perennials in zones 3 through 7. As long as they are planted in well-drained soil with full sun exposure, you can expect them to return and bloom reliably each late spring.

Absolutely. Their sturdy stems and long-lasting, full blooms make them an excellent choice for cut flower arrangements. They hold their shape well in a vase and provide a clean, elegant aesthetic.

Like most tulips, Mount Tacoma bulbs require well-drained soil to prevent rot. If your garden soil is heavy clay, consider amending it with organic matter or grit to improve drainage before planting.
