One of the tulips I forced last fall that’s putting on a little show in my windowsill right now is ‘Scarlet Baby’.
This Kaufmanniana grows 5 to 8 inches tall with bright red star-shaped flowers. In the center of the petals is a perfectly round golden eye.
The flowers close in the evening and open up again the following morning.
I potted up my bulbs in mid-November and brought them out of the refrigerator at the end of February.
