Lemon-yellow variegated foliage and bi-coloured, yellow and white flowers, make 'Interaction' a bright and cheery addition to the spring garden. A species tulip, it’s an undemanding bulb that doesn’t need to be lifted each year, and if planted in the ground, particularly at the front of borders, it will spread to form good-sized clumps. Alternatively, underplant these stunning spring bloomers with a frothy carpet of forget-me-not in pots and containers for a lovely, seasonal pop of colour. - Garden care: In November or December plant bulbs 10cm deep in fertile, well-drained soil. After flowering deadhead and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month.
