Yes, my Ugam was renamed as Ice Stick by Jan Pennings .
My tulips all are replanted and watered 2 weeks ago. Now have long roots. Still left some small residuial stocks for outside garden which I intend to replant next week.

Post by: PeterT on October 03, 2013, 08:44:10 PM: Peppermint Stick does sound good Margret, but it is apparently a Tulipa clusiana form, though the picture of the flower looks superficially similar it is a very distinct plant from T. kaufmanniana. - T. clusiana is more spindly with smaller flowers and narrower leaves.
