Select an area of the yard that receives full sun or partial shade. The soil must be well-drained in order for tulips to thrive.
Pick out different-colored flowers to pair with the golden tulips, or group a large number of the golden variety together. Since gold is a warm-toned color, you can pair it with other warm colors, such as yellow or red, for a vibrant look or choose cool-toned colors, such as blue or purple, for a calming contrast.
Plant golden tulips along walkways or driveways to act as a border. Contrast the look of tulips with other colorful flowers, such as pansy, calibrachoa or iris in colors such as purple, blue, pink or deep red. For a cohesive look, bunch golden tulips together, or pair with red, pink, purple or white for an eye-catching palette.
Contrast the color of the home by planting golden tulips in a flowerbed along the foundation. The golden color will brighten up a darker exterior color palette and complement any color trim.
Add golden tulips to containers and place up porch steps or around a patio to brighten up the entryway. Place the containers around other features in the yard, such as a swimming pool, outdoor entertaining area or deck, to incorporate color into any part of the landscape.
