Description
Sometimes, dynamite comes in small packages! If you’re looking for a truly extraordinary detail to add to your container gardening repertoire or to grow in a very high-profile spot, you can’t make a better choice than 'Samantha' tulips. It’s almost unbelievable to see the perfect, doll-sized mini tulips explode into bloom, but Tulip 'Samantha' adds to the floral fantasy with flaming colour and petal-packed double flowers for a fairy-garden focal point you’ll want to make all your own. As an added benefit, Tulip 'Samantha' is no one-hit wonder. Our top-quality bulbs will give you up to three flower stems per bulb.
