Tulip clusiana 'Lady Jane'
- Good for Cutting
- Naturalises
- Perfect for Pots
Lovely as window ledge and living inside table decorations, these fine-looking, Brighton-rock ‘Lady Jane’ tulips remind me of wild species varieties I’ve found in Crete
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.
Plants are supplied in 9cm pots for you to pot into your own containers or slot into a border. We love these Classic Terracotta Bulb Bowls, they are the perfect size and shape for a table centre of spring colour.
