Tulipa 'Cafe Noir' ( single late tulip bulbs)

Tulipa ‘Cafe Noir’ ( single late tulip bulbs) was £5.99 now £4.99
Position: full sun Soil: fertile, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: May Other features: excellent cut-flowers Hardiness: fully hardy Bulb size: 11/12 Brooding near-black flowers top the stout stems of this single late tulip. Excellent in late spring and early summer bedding schemes, its rich chocolate-red colouring looks great as a contrast to creamy whites and yellows, or toned with soft pinks. 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.
