If you are a fan of Darwin tulips, as I am, you will love the lovely red blooms of 'Come Back.' Not only are these tulips beautiful to look at, but they also were named for their reliable staying power, returning each spring year after year after year.
Not only good for northern gardens, 'Come Back' does equally well in more southerly gardens where winters are mild as they require only a small amount of winter chill.

'Come Back' is suppose to come back reliably year after year, hence the name. A great tulip that's been around since 1984.
Last fall when I decided to order a lot of tulip bulbs, it was the first time I had heard or read about it. It "must be" a treasure, so I ordered 24 of these bright red gems.
I'm very excited to see these beauties blooming this spring. I'm planning to order more of these bright red gems this year.
