In the fall of 2010, I planted some Ad Rem and they were stunning. Even my husband mentioned that. They glowed when the sun was shining on them and through them. Big, colorful, and beautiful blooms.
When I was ordering a lot of bulbs and over 1400 tulip bulbs, I wanted to make sure to order these again because DH and I loved them so much. I was very happy to found a source that wasn't sold out, as I didn't start ordering until early October, and I ordered 50, at least twice the amount I had ordered in 2010.
I'm looking forward to seeing them bloom this spring!

I purchased these bulbs from High Country Gardens. They emerged when the weather warmed in March. This year in the Denver, Colorado area we had many hard freezes during what should have been milder spring weather. I was worried about these plants but thankfully they made it through. The leaves got a bit of brown around the edges but nothing severe. When the spring snow and cold came, these plants became buried in snow. Perhaps that is what saved them.
