Plant description

This tulip collection offers rich colour, layered textures, and long-lasting seasonal interest from winter through to late spring. Expect big, double tulip blooms in warm apricot and deep purple tones. It’s ideal for pots, borders or cutting, and perfect for anyone wanting a bold, low-fuss display that keeps evolving through the season. A great choice for adding impact to smaller spaces or refreshing tired winter planters.

If purchased with the pot option, and perhaps as an all-inclusive gift, the embossed aged planter (large Ø46.5 × H31cm) will provide a visually attractive container, as imaged.

Please be aware that the pot (if ordered) may be delivered separately. If the bulbs arrive first, please store them in a cool, dry place until ready for planting.

What's included:

In this combination you will receive the following:

  • 14 × Tulipa 'Charming Beauty': Charming by name and charming by nature, the paeony-like flowers of this double-late tulip form generous golden-apricot bowls, many of which have just a hint of green on their outer edges. It's an excellent choice for the home florist, and it can be grown in patio pots where space is at a premium. Grows to 45cm.

  • 14 × Tulipa 'Showcase': Massive, magnificent peony-like blooms appear from late April. 'Showcase' has petals of deepest purple with hints of magenta. Forget 'look-but-don’t-touch', glass-fronted showcases - this double flowered early tulip is the perfect show piece for pots and containers, borders or as cut flowers in a vase! Grows to Grows to 40cm.

  • Shown planted with Pansy 'Frizzle Sizzle Burgundy' (not included)

    How to care for Spring promise pot collection:

    Using fresh, good-quality compost, plant bulbs in pots from September to November. For borders, we advise waiting until after the first frosts (typically mid-October to early December depending on your location) to reduce the risk of potential disease such as Tulip Fire. Plant bulbs 15-20cm (6-8in) deep and 10-15cm (4-6in) apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 7-9 bulbs per 30cm sq or 60-75 bulbs per m². If you’re unable to plant your bulbs immediately, they can be stored in a cool environment with good air circulation. Remove all the packaging and place them in a loose-weave jute sack before labelling and hanging up in a dry, unheated garden shed or well-ventilated greenhouse.

    In spring, when the plants are in active growth, apply a high-potash fertiliser (like Tomorite) each week until the leaves start to die back. Pinch off the spent flower heads as the petals fall, and let the stem and foliage die back naturally. The bulbs can then be lifted and discarded, or cleaned, dried and stored (as before) for replanting the following autumn.

    Please note:

    This bulb dies back after flowering each year and enters a period of rest ahead of regrowth the following season.
