Description
Imagine a section of your spring garden covered with wide red peony-like blooms held aloft on grey-green foliage. That’s the effect you’ll get if you plant the double-early flowering Tulip Largo in groups of 10 to 15, or let them ring your beds as a border or edging flower. The stunning display is sure to earn you compliments for its sheer grandeur.
The brilliant red of this multi-petalled flower will also make a great contribution to any floral arrangement and provide a striking statement in a container on your patio. Tulip Largo is also suitable for early forcing.
