Our tulips are exceptionally fine for cemetery planting. We also have a surplus of tea roses in pots that are ideal for out door planting. The color is a beautiful shell pink. There is no chance of these not growing as they come out of pots and the roots would not be disturbed in replanting. Plant now so they will be well established before cold weather.
