    A multi-headed tulip that can produce up to 5 dazzling flowers on each stem in mid-spring. Their orange-red colouring is really eye-catching, so they really put on a great show, and as the plants are relatively compact, they are great for pots as well as borders.

    This tulip forms part of our organic bulb range. Sadly there are only a handful of growers who are currently able to grow their bulbs organically, so although we stock as many as we can source, our range is limited. They are supplied in a plastic-free compostable bag.

  • Garden care: From October to December plant the bulbs 10-15cm deep and 8cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. After flowering apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month. If planted in a lawn, make sure the turf is not cut until the foliage has completely died back.
  • Humans: Harmful if eaten; skin allergen; Pets: Ornamental bulbs - not to be eaten
