Plant tulip bulbs from October to mid-December, once the weather has cooled. Until then, store them somewhere cool, dry and safely away from mice and squirrels.

Tulip
'Pink Pride'
Tulip 'Pink Pride' is exactly what it says on the tin—a proud, bold bloom that makes no apologies for its size or its colour. As a darwin hybrid, it produces impressively large, cup-shaped flowers in a perfectly poised shade of classic pink—neither too soft nor too shouty. With strong stems and a tidy form, Tulip 'Pink Pride' stands tall and elegant in mid-spring, making it an ideal choice for formal borders, relaxed drifts, or cheerful pots by the front door. The sheer scale of each flower means Tulip 'Pink Pride' makes a statement, even in smaller groups.
Dependable and easy to grow, Tulip 'Pink Pride' performs beautifully in well-drained soil and a sunny position, returning with vigour year after year if given the right conditions. It looks particularly striking when planted en masse or mixed with other darwin hybrids for a show that’s both colourful and cohesive. Tulip 'Pink Pride' also makes a superb cut flower, holding its shape and colour well in a vase. Whether you're designing a soft spring scheme or simply love a good, solid tulip with real garden presence, Tulip 'Pink Pride' fits the bill. For big blooms, strong stems and an undeniably cheery hue, Tulip 'Pink Pride' is a reliable spring favourite.

Plant profile
Plant calendar
Choose full sun or partial shade. Improve heavy soil with organic matter and horticultural grit. For containers, use peat-free multipurpose compost with good drainage.
Plant bulbs pointed side upwards, 15–20cm deep and around 10cm apart. You can leave a little more space between them in borders.
Water once after planting to settle the soil. Border-grown tulips rarely need further watering, but containers should be kept lightly moist and never waterlogged.
Remove faded flowers, then allow the foliage to yellow and die back naturally. This helps the bulbs store energy for the following year.
