    Deep scarlet flowers with plum shades on the outside emerge on this single, early tulip in late spring. The colour is rich and warm so it combines well with pink and apricot tones. This tulip was first introduced in 1845 and it is still a very popular variety.

  • Garden care: In September to December plant bulbs 15-20cm deep and 10-15cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 7-9 bulbs per 30cm sq. After flowering dead-head 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.
