Both classic and contemporary, this sumptuous collection of regal purple and velvety red will add depth and warmth to the spring display.
In each collection you will receive the following:
- 10 × Tulipa 'Purple Lady': The sumptuous colouring of this striking tulip is a subtle blend of deep purple with pink and blue overtones, while the petals have a satin-like lustre. It's a truly gorgeous thing - particularly when planted en masse, although it will add body to a planting scheme with softer pinks and violets. Alternatively, use it to contrast with silvers or chartreuse green - wow! Grows to 40cm tall.
- 10 × Tulipa 'Renegade': Deep, lipstick-red flowers with plum shades ‘pucker up’ on this sturdy, single, early tulip in late spring. ‘Renegade’ is a rebellious splash of vibrant colour when planted en-masse and combines well with pink and apricot tones. Alternatively, mix with rich golds and orange shades, or tuck it in with deep purples for a dazzling display. Grows to 40cm tall.
