I've seen tulips in with hosta. My guess is that while the tulips are
blooming, the trees haven't leafed out. When the hostas come into their
own, the trees are also in their glory.
I believe that White Flower Farm was featuring daffodils with daylilies. I
tried this combo with tulips and daylilies successfully. Use
early-blooming tulips; the late ones are engulfed by the daylily foliage.
Both like the dry soil and I believe both like the same type of fertilizer
because the daylilies never looked better.
