Description
Delft Blue is blue and white pottery made in and around Delft in the Netherlands from the 16th century (Wikipedia). We are delighted to express the famous Delft Blue painting style in this collection of Tulip 'White Dream' and Muscari armeniacum. The Tulip 'White Dream' is a low growing triumph tulip and is being used by many professional growers for flowering on pots. When you combine Tulip 'White Dream' with grape hyacinths, you'll create a wonderful contrast in your spring garden. The people in Delft would be proud to see the result!
Each Delft Blue Collection package contains:
- 10 x Tulip 'White Dream'
- 25 x Muscari armeniacum
Needless to say, all bulbs are top-size for an optimal performance.
