Position: full sunSoil: fertile, well-drained soilRate of growth: averageFlowering period: late AprilFlower colour: rick pink fading to whiteOther features: excellent cut-flowersHardiness: fully hardyBulb Size: 12/14Rich pink flower petals, that are streaked with white, and gradually fade to mainly white as the flowers age, make this a delightful and interesting addition to the mid spring bedding scheme. It is a tall and elegant tulip, and the soft colouring means that it is particularly easy to mix.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 dead-head 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.Please note that as we grow these bulbs especially for you, we need to take full payment when you place your order to reserve the stock. The bulbs will then be despatched to you during September. If you want other items on your order delivered beforehand, please select split delivery in the wheelbarrow when placing your order.
