A bright and cheerful tulip that has been around for many years. It has small yellow flowers that look like they have been licked with red paint. Traditional in shape, the flowers sit on top of sturdy stems which make them good in exposed spots. - Garden care: In September to December plant bulbs 15-20cm deep and 10-15cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 7-9 bulbs per 30cm sq. After flowering deadhead and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month. Once the foliage has died down naturally lift the bulbs and store in a cool greenhouse.
- Humans: Harmful if eaten; skin allergen; Pets: Ornamental bulbs - not to be eaten
