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
'Wyndham'
Aged, vintage hues are absolutely on trend in the flower world and Tulip 'Wyndham' has nailed it. Emerging mid tulip season and maturing like a fine wine, these long-lasting blooms slowly unravel and look even more beautiful as they age, adopting a relaxed structure of petals in mellow hues of dusky burgundy and antique ivory-cream. The fully double flowers are truly luxurious, formed of a plush nest of silky petals. Enjoy these blooms in your borders and pots, or make a space on your plot for a patch of Tulip 'Wyndham' to use in floral arrangements which look like they’ve been plucked from an old painting!
If you’re wondering what to combine with this beauty, you’ll find you have lots of options because most muted, dark, dusky or pastel colours will look great with Tulip 'Wyndham'. Plant them in groups in patio containers or borders for the best effect in the garden. If you enjoy creating first-class cut-flower arrangements, or simply like to harvest a few fresh flowers from the garden from time to time, these tulips look entirely gorgeous in a bouquet, especially when displayed in a vintage vase.
Tulip 'Wyndham' puts the wow in wow-factor! Its stunning, burgundy-red petals with a broad, cream border, are further enhanced by hues of gold as the season progresses. An added bonus? A sweet, subtle scent that invites any passersby to stop, and take a closer look. The perfect mid-season bloom, these voluminous, voluptuous tulips are a treat for the eyes, and a pleasure to behold.
The strong stems of Tulip 'Wyndham' make the flowers capable of being cut for arrangements, without wavering, and their general robustness makes them ideal for garden beds or containers. Plant these antique-looking beauties for their generous size and a spectacle of multi-tiered petals, and enjoy a vision of colour that will last for weeks on end.

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.
