In a captivating display of rich deep purplish-red, this remarkable tulip, known for its peony-shaped flowers, makes a stunning statement. Blooming from the second week of April, this sumptuous tulip proves versatile, gracing pots, borders, and vases with its radiant presence well before the middle of spring. Exhibiting reddish-purple flowers, ‘Alison Bradley’ is an ideal choice for the front of borders, large pots, and containers, offering weeks of garden colour and an extended vase life if chosen for indoor arrangements. The vigorous bulbs have the potential to produce three or more of these captivating double flowers on robust stems.


  • Garden care:
    In November plant bulbs 15-20cm deep and 10-15cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 60 bulbs per m². 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.
