Tulipa batalinii var. 'Red Hunter' - Species Tulip

Tulip linifolia (Batalinii Group) 'Red Hunter' sports bright scarlet red flowers in spring. It naturalises easily and performs well in garden situations.

A dwarf species tulip that will naturalise in the garden. 

Tulipa saxatilus is a naturalising Tulip. One of the most elegant and striking of ALL the tulips. Lovely gold centres with beautiful lilac outer petals. Stunning species. This tulip does like a little space to spread.

Bulbs are packed in brown paper bags with colour labels and full growing directions.

The elegance of the Tulip family simply can not be overlooked! Beautiful blooms carried on strong stems appear in early spring and last for a number of weeks.

Tulips need a full sun position, but can tolerate some dappled light. Prepare your beds to a depth of 20cm, making sure the soil is light and fluffy. Plant the bulbs with the 'fat' end down at a depth of 6cm. Allow 10cm between each bulb, however a less full result can be achieved if you choose to plant further apart.

If growing your Tulips in a pot, select a high quality potting mix that is free draining. Some gravel in the base of the pot will assist with any drainage issues. Ensure the bulb is well fed and watered right up until dormancy.

Tulips DO NOT require refrigeration in cooler areas, and are happy to naturalise in the ground for many years. Feed your bulbs as they come into bloom, and make sure you leave the foliage to fully die down - this feeds and grows NEXT years flower.

Please note, we recommend planting in April at the earliest.
