Top size bulbs for bigger flowers
Easy to grow
This for me is like the tulip Trooping the Colour, all the most handsome Guardsmen lined up on either side of the main path of our cutting garden at Perch Hill. What a dream
- Tulip 'Ballerina'
- Tulip 'Purple Heart'
- Tulip 'Prinses Irene'
- Tulip 'Doll's Minuet'
- Tulip 'Queen of Night''
Tulip petals are all edible. We scatter them over salad and use some petals dipped in tempura batter and served with a spring garden Frito Misto. Tulip 'White Valley' is a favourite for this.
We may also vary the number of bulbs per variety, depending on availability. The overall quantity of bulbs and value will not be affected. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems..- Good for Cutting
