Description
Tulipa whittallii is a truly beautiful tulip, in the deepest coppery orange. Rare and unusual, yet easy and reliable to grow. I've had this growing from the same batch of bulbs for fifteen years now in my garden.
Our tulip bulbs are the best and biggest we can find, from tried and trusted growers. Don't forget that tulips like to be planted late in October and November with the colder weather, and need a little watering if planted in pots.
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.
