This is a stunning tulip to add to the spring border. A stately grower, it has sturdy stems that stand up well in poor weather conditions, topped with very generously proportioned reddish-pink flowers, which tend to last longer than the average tulip. Also, being a Darwin hybrid, there's a good chance that it will flower over several years. - 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.
