Satin-like petals in a sensuous shade of pink, with apricot highlights that become more noticeable around the petal edges. These form graceful, egg-shaped flowers on sturdy upright stems that stand up well to adverse weather conditions. A tough and well-established tulip that can be used in seasonal bedding displays or to fill a vase inside the house. - 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.
