Tulip 'Black Hero' & Allium 'Silver Spring'
In each collection you will receive the following:
- 1 × Allium 'Silver Spring': We fell in love with this new allium as soon as we saw it. In early to midsummer each upright stem is crowned with a rounded cluster of small flowers, each with a ruff of rounded white petals that surround a prominent blueberry purple centre. They are great for adding structural interest to the border, and their flowers are ideal for cutting. Grows to 75cm.
- 7 × Tulipa 'Black Hero': A stunning double-flowered tulip with deep maroon-black blooms with a satin sheen. This has been bred from the highly acclaimed tulip 'Queen of Night' and has the same distinctive midnight black flowers, but with many more petals. Plant it somewhere prominent so you can really enjoy the flowers when they appear in May Grows to 60cm.
