With its timeless appeal, the ‘Purple Flag’ tulip is a true beauty. Its stunning purple flowers are rich in colour and elegance, creating a striking display. Supported by sturdy stems, these blooms also make wonderful cut flowers. Height: 50cm (20″). Spread: 10cm (8″). 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.
