Tulip Avignon Parrot Flower Bulbs

Parrot

From green buds unfurl brilliant orange blooms. The feathered flowers have hints of pink and green brushed along the petals.

Scented 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.

When you think of Tulips you may not always think of scent; but you should. Our selection of scented tulips are some of the most strongly scented varieties, and its no coincidence that there is an overriding ember theme, as these colours tend to be the most scented - plus they make for a harmonious display in the vase.

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.

All our bulbs supplied as top grade bulbs.
