Plant description

The delicate-looking tulips in this collection originate from mountainous regions in Central Asia and are in fact extremely tough. Unlike many of the other types of tulips, they can be left in the ground where they will come back year after year, forming good-sized clumps if conditions suit them.

Care guide

From August to November plant the bulbs 10-15cm deep and 10-15cm apart in a sunny spot with fertile, well-drained soil. While actively growing, keep them moderately well watered and remove the flowers after they have faded. At that stage a balanced liquid fertiliser can be applied each week for 4 weeks before they die down.

Features

In each collection you will receive the following:

  • 7 × Tulipa 'Little Beauty': From amongst the lax clumps of long, slender leaves, upright bowl-shaped From amongst the lax clumps of long, slender leaves, upright bowl-shaped From amongst the lax clumps of long, slender leaves, upright bowl-shaped of creamy white and rich blue. Grows to 15cm tall.
  • 7 × Tulipa saxatilis (Bakeri Group) 'Lilac Wonder: Bowl-shaped mauve-pink flowers, with a paler interior and a luminous, well-defined eye, appear in profusion from mid-spring. Compact in habit, they are ideally suited to pots or windowboxes, as well as filling gaps towards the front of the border. Grows to 25cm tall
  • 7 × Tulipa tarda: Shiny, lance-shaped green leaves form loose clumps, which in early to mid-spring are crowned with white-tipped yellow flowers, often with a reverse that is flushed with red and green. Happiest in richer soils, its compact habit makes it ideal for pots. This tulip is one of the few that do not need to be lifted each year and if planted in the ground, it will spread to form good-sized clumps. Grows to 15cm tall.
