Golden Parade, a sport of Parade, is a classic Darwin Hybrid tulip introduced in 1963. It features large, egg-shaped blooms in buttercup yellow, accented by a delicate red margin. Sturdy stems reach up to 24 inches tall, supporting flowers up to 3 inches across. Blooming in mid to late spring, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil—ideal for borders, mass plantings, and cut arrangements. Once the premier yellow tulip for landscape use, Golden Parade has gradually ceded ground to Novi Sun in recent years.

Planting: Plant in fall when soil temperatures drop below 55°F. Set bulbs 6–8 inches deep with the pointed end up. Darwin Hybrids are ideal for large-scale displays, perennial borders, and cutting gardens due to their impressive size and vigor.
Spacing: Space bulbs 4–6 inches apart. For maximum impact, plant in groups of 10 or more—tall stems and broad flowers are especially striking in mass.
Light: Full sun is essential for strong stems and rich bloom color. While light shade is tolerated, abundant light ensures upright growth and long-lasting flowers.
Soil: Provide well-drained, neutral to slightly acidic soil (pH 6–7). Avoid poorly drained areas—these large bulbs are prone to rot in wet spring conditions.
Watering: Water after planting to settle the soil. In spring, water only during extended dry periods to preserve bloom integrity.
Temperature & Dormancy: Requires 12–16 weeks of cold (below 50°F) for proper root formation and bloom development.
Fertilization: Apply balanced bulb fertilizer when planting and again in early spring as foliage appears. This supports their strong perennial tendencies and bold floral performance.
Pests: Squirrels may dig newly planted bulbs—protect with mulch or mesh. Deer will eat buds and foliage, especially early in spring, so use repellents or fencing in high-pressure areas.
Disease: To prevent Botrytis (Tulip Fire), plant only healthy, firm bulbs in sunny, well-ventilated locations. Avoid overhead watering and promptly remove any infected tissue—do not compost. Rotate planting sites annually and avoid replanting in previously affected areas for three years.
