Waterlily Tulip (Tulipa kaufmanniana) 'Hearts Delight' is a cheerful, early spring bloomer. The large red, rose, and golden blooms sit atop short stems, with petals that spread out horizontally, creating a "water lily" look in the garden. Because of their short height, Kaufmanniana tulips work well at the front of borders, in rock gardens, or in containers.
