With their exquisite blooms and luxurious textures, these long-lasting, bicolour tulips are perfect for creating stunning floral arrangements that will captivate any space. Create wonderful floral arrangements or potted heaven with this curated mix of raspberry flamed yellows and whites, and blackcurrant blooms frosted with white.
In each collection you will receive the following:
- 10 × Tulipa 'Fontainebleau': The white rim helps define the colouring of the deep maroon petals, and together they create a show-stopping effect - particularly when seen against the backdrop of the blue-flushed foliage. Plant en masse so you have enough for the border as well as the vase. Grows to 40cm.
- 10 × Tulipa 'Carnaval de Rio': Streaked rich red and creamy white petals form classically shaped flowers, which top robust stems and open to form magnificent bowls. The two-tone colouring makes them excellent for mixing with plain reds or white. Plant more than you need as they also make great cut flowers. Grows to 50cm.
- 10 × Tulipa 'Helmar': A bright and cheerful tulip that has been around for many years. It has small yellow flowers that look like they have been licked with red paint. Traditional in shape, the flowers sit on top of sturdy stems which make them good in exposed spots. Grows to 45cm.
