Description

I love this, Arthur hates it — and that’s what this tulip does, strongly divide opinion. As a single stem, there was nothing I enjoyed more running in narrow neck bottles down our kitchen table and a posse of five by our bed, each one crazier than the next.

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.
