Description

There are red tulips that are beauties and red tulips which just feel ordinary. This is from the classy end - stately, rich, and with a powerful presence; brilliant for adding contrast to dark reds and browns. That’s where I use it, for a splash of red in amongst the sultry colours, to bring them to life.

This can be gift wrapped in our exclusive hessian sack, with ribbon and a Sarah Raven gift card. You will be able to add this to your basket once you begin the checkout process. To add a gift message to your order, simply fill out the details at the delivery stage of the checkout.

Please note: only items which are showing ‘in stock’ can be gift wrapped.

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.

Care Tips

After flowering leave the foliage to die back naturally if you want to reuse the bulbs.
