Description
This beautiful collection comprises ever-popular Tulip ‘Princess Irene’ along with two of her royal relatives Tulip ‘Pretty Princess’ and Tulip ‘Ravana’, giving a balanced, harmonious and truly gorgeous display of mixed-colour blooms during April and May. If you like classic tulips with glowing hues as well as a subtle hint of exotic colour, this crowning combo is a winning mix!
Flowering on short, sturdy stems, all three varieties are ideal for growing in pots or at the front of a border as well as in more confined spaces within small gardens. Each outer petal is marked with its own unique flame in a contrasting shade which really sets the display alight with colour. All three triumph tulips in this exclusive collection are reliable and easy to grow, flowering in well-balanced and pleasing shades of yellow, orange and pink. Grow plenty of these beauties in borders and containers and not only will they shine in your garden, but you’ll have plenty of material to make wonderful cut flower arrangements too!
Each collection contains:
10 Tulip 'Princess Irene' 12/+
5 Tulip 'Ravana' 12/+
