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.
'Spryng Rembrandt'
Tulip 'Spryng Rembrandt' is a captivating newcomer that brings an artist’s flourish to the spring garden, its distinctive colouring reminiscent of hand-painted petals. Each bloom of Tulip 'Spryng Rembrandt' opens into a classic chalice shape, revealing a creamy-white base dramatically streaked and flamed with rich rosy-red.

Reaching around 40 to 45cm in height, Tulip 'Spryng Rembrandt' stands tall on strong, weather-resistant stems that hold their poise even through unsettled spring days. This resilience makes Tulip 'Spryng Rembrandt' a reliable choice for exposed beds, containers and cutting gardens alike. Indoors, a few stems of Tulip 'Spryng Rembrandt' create an instant focal point, each bloom offering its own unique patterning. With its blend of classic form and painterly flair, Tulip 'Spryng Rembrandt' feels both timeless and refreshingly modern, bringing a touch of gallery-worthy beauty to any planting.

Plant profile
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.
