A viridiflora tulip variety featuring delicate, frilled, cup-shaped blooms. It showcases an elegant contrast of ivory petals accented by vibrant green flames. This reliable perennial bulb is a recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit. It typically flowers in May, growing to a height of 40-50 cm with a spread of 1-10 cm. 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.
