Sowing
Sow once the soil is warmer than 10 °C, in a sunny spot sheltered from the wind. Sow about three times as deep as the seed is thick, into finely raked soil with no clods on top. Spacing is as printed on the packet — thin the seedlings out after they come up. Water with a fine spray so the seed is not washed away, and keep only the strongest plants.
Description
An ornamental tulip variety, notable for bright red petals with deep yellow edges.
It belongs to the Triumph tulip group, which are known for their sturdy stems and resistance to wind and rain.
It flowers in mid-spring and reaches a height of about 40–50 cm, which makes it suitable for gardens as well as for growing in pots or as a cut flower.
How to grow
Tulips are winter-hardy plants. They require warm, sunny spots, but give satisfactory results in partial shade too. Well-drained sandy-loam soils are most suitable.
Watering is only needed in May during longer dry spells. They do not like feeding with manure.
They are fed with mineral potassium and phosphorus fertilisers, which are worked in when digging over the site before planting the bulbs in autumn.
