Tulips

Heralding the fast-approaching summer, tulips with their bold and easily recognisable blooms are synonymous with spring in its full glory. Great in formal or informal displays, in container or borders, there’s a shade to act as a foil in any mixed planting scheme or simply planted en masse to grand effect.

Plant your tulips between November and December at a depth of approximately 10-15cm/4-6in, approximately 20cm/8in apart, in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny position. Planting sooner can result in frost damage to the growing shoot. We recommend dead-heading once the blooms begin to fade and feeding with a fertiliser for a few weeks for stronger bulbs next season.
