‘Crispa Mix’ is a superb new collection of vibrantly coloured fringed tulips. Boasting shades of red, white, purple and lemon, they beautifully top a clump forming habit of slender green leaflets. The perfect perennial for planting in borders, patio containers and cottage gardening schemes, its feathered petals will most definitely attract attention and add some drama. Thriving to a height of 40cm and spreading to around 15cm, be sure to keep in partial shade for optimum growth. Tulip ‘Crispa Mix’ is a vivid blend of fringed tulips in a wide array of dazzling colours. Plant tulip bulbs in late summer or autumn. Tulips will grow well in any moist, well drained soil, except for particularly wet soils. Choose a sunny position that is sheltered from strong winds. When planting tulip bulbs avoid shallow planting as this may reduce the winter cold period that is essential for tulip bulbs to produce flowers in spring. Plant them at a depth of 15cm (6″) and at a distance of 13cm (5″) apart.
