- A soft and sweet collection of dusky peach and pink, studded with blooms of bronze-burgundy flamed terracotta. This 'vintage-feel' assortment holds interest in form as well as colour making them ideal companions for cut-flower displays.In each collection you will receive the following:
- 5 × Tulipa 'La Belle Epoque': Large, many-petalled flowers appear in late spring or early summer. Their unique colouring (pinkish-apricot becoming paler towards the outer edges of the petals), blends well with deeper pinks and shades of purple. Often called peony-flowered tulips, these beautiful blooms also make great cut flowers. Grows to 45cm.
- 10 × Tulipa 'Salmon Van Eijk': Topping tall and sturdy stems, exceptionally large, goblet-shaped flowers, which are a subtle blend of pink and apricot, create a lavish display in bedding schemes in mid- to late spring. Plant generously, so you have spares for the vase. Grows to 50cm.
- 7 × Tulipa 'Request': Slender orange flowers, each with a bronze-burgundy flush towards the base of their pointed petals, will add oomph to both borders and pots. Easy to mix, it looks spectacular when teamed with deep reds and plum tones. Grows to 45cm.
- 5 × Tulipa 'La Belle Epoque': Large, many-petalled flowers appear in late spring or early summer. Their unique colouring (pinkish-apricot becoming paler towards the outer edges of the petals), blends well with deeper pinks and shades of purple. Often called peony-flowered tulips, these beautiful blooms also make great cut flowers. Grows to 45cm.
- Garden care: From August to November plant the bulbs 10-15cm deep and 10-15cm apart in a sunny spot with fertile, well-drained soil. While actively growing, keep them moderately well watered and remove the flowers after they have faded. At that stage a balanced liquid fertiliser can be applied each week for 4 weeks before they die down.
