Sumptuous flowers, among the largest in the tulip family, set an early romantic tone in the garden, harmonising beautifully with roses, peonies, and oriental poppies. This parrot tulip boasts frilled semi-double blooms with lilac-purple petals that gracefully contrast with delicate apricot hues, creating a uniquely captivating display. Thriving in both full sun and partial shade, 'Vovos' is a versatile and splendid choice, perfect for showcasing on its own or complementing pale apricots and deep purples. With its semi-to-fully double, frilly petals, it also makes an exceptional cut flower.


  • Garden care:
    In November or December plant bulbs 15-20cm (6-8in) deep in fertile, well-drained soil. After flowering deadhead and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month. Once the foliage has died down naturally lift the bulbs and store in a cool greenhouse.
