Description
Tulip 'Love Story' is anything but shy when it comes to colour—it’s bold, beautiful, and wears its name well. This striking lily-flowering tulip features large blooms with vibrant reddish-pink petals boldly contrasted by clear pale yellow highlights. There’s nothing subtle about it, and that’s precisely the charm. The elegant, pointed petals flare outward in classic lily-tulip style, creating a striking silhouette that moves gracefully in the breeze. Tulip 'Love Story' flowers in mid to late spring, just when the garden needs a fresh burst of energy and character.
A strong performer in both borders and containers, Tulip 'Love Story' thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, returning each year with its tall stems and confident colour palette. Whether planted en masse for a showy display or dotted among softer tones for contrast, Tulip 'Love Story' never fades into the background. Its vivid, two-tone colouring makes it ideal for adding structure and impact, especially when mixed with other lily-flowering types. For gardeners who appreciate a tulip with personality, Tulip 'Love Story' delivers style, strength, and plenty of seasonal charm. With its bold lines and clear contrast, Tulip 'Love Story' is a springtime statement worth repeating.
