The Tulip 'Chrysantha', 'Tulipa species', a fall planted bulb, produce red and yellow flowers on short stems. The Species Tulips are rarely planted in large masses because their main feature is their uniqueness. Species Tulips are suitable for rock gardens and small group plantings, and they prefer to be left in the ground to multiply naturally. Species tulips are the wildflowers of the tulip family, and these hardy Species tulips require less work. The leaves should not be cut back until they begin to yellow. This permits bulbs to recharge before going summer-dormant.
