    Double Late Tulips are Late Spring Tulips. Because of their shape, Double Late Tulips are also known as Peony Flowering Tulips. They are also referred to as Double Bloom Tulips.


    Double Late Tulips perform best in full sun in rich, fertile, medium moisture, well-drained soils. They prefer areas with cool winters and warm dry summers.

    Double Shirley Tulips have creamy white petals that are finally edged with bright purple.

    I have doubles because they look like Peonies. These are new bulbs last autumn. Looking forward, they are not fully up yet so have some way to go yet till Spring.

    Tulip Esprit is a double flowered tulip.


    Finola Double Tulip is a rosy creamed colored tulip. It looks like a rose.

    Double Late Peony Flowering Tulips can easily reach a span of four inches across. They perform best in full sun in rich, fertile, medium moisture, well-drained soils.

    Double Late Peony Flowering Tulips have thirty-six petals apiece.
