More information

The double flower of this Tulip blooms in a large open cup and is well formed, then unfolds like a peony measuring 12cm (5in), blending different shades of burnt orange, rosy copper and bronze with a touch of yellow on its many petals. It blooms on a short stem in April, after the early single tulips. This fragrant flowering lasts a long time in the garden and in a vase. A true delight!

Description

The Double Early Tulip, Tulipa 'Brownie' is a recently discovered variety that is delightful for the eyes and the nose. The double flower of this variety has a delicious and spicy colour, made of a blend of coppery or bronze orange, caramel and cocoa, enhanced by a touch of buttery yellow and vanilla. It opens up into a large, well-formed cup, and then unfolds like a peony with multiple petals. This beautiful flower is also fragrant. It is perched at the end of a short stem that is resistant to bad weather and emerges from broad blue-green foliage. It flowers after early single tulips.

 

The 'Brownie' Tulip, introduced in 2015, belongs to the Lily family. Originally horticultural, it is currently classified in the group of double early tulips, whose main characteristic is that they all flower at the same height, making them a popular choice for well-regulated flowerbeds. They are often available in a mix of colours under the name 'Murillo' tulips. Perched on strong 35 cm (14in) stems just above the broadly lanceolate leaves, the double flowers open almost flat and are 12 cm (5in) wide at full bloom, in a symphony of very warm tones rarely seen in tulips. They flower in April, in the heart of the tulip season. 

 

Double early tulips with peony flowers are very popular with their rich colours and sturdy and resistant flowers, suitable for flowerbeds and bouquets. It is no coincidence that they are among the most commonly used varieties for cut flowers and are unmatched for bringing the colours of spring to pots or sunny gardens. Remember to consider the height and flowering period of tulips when designing your flowerbeds, as these can vary significantly from one cultivar to another. It is a good idea to plant a few more bulbs for beautiful long-lasting cut flowers. 'Brownie', with its very warm colour, pairs beautifully with the blue flowers of grape hyacinths or wood hyacinths.

Planting and care

Plant the bulbs in autumn, from September to December, at a depth of 15 cm (6in), 10 cm (4in) apart in regular, slightly acidic, neutral, or slightly alkaline, loose, well-worked, and well-draining soil. Never add manure or poorly decomposed compost to the planting soil, as this could cause the bulbs to rot. Brownie will thrive in moist to dry soil. Plant it in a suitable location, either sunny or partially shaded. Once flowering is over, it is best to remove the seed heads to avoid exhausting the plant.
