2 Months of Pink Tulips Collection

The Two Months of Pink Tulips Collection is a selection of three different varieties of pink tulips, whose flowering periods overlap continuously for two months, from March to May. These tulips have single flowers ranging from pastel pink to vibrant pink. They are ideal for adding a romantic touch to borders, flower beds, edges, and pots.

The collection includes:

10 Tulipa fosteriana 'Albert Heijn': This early variety reaches a height of 35 cm. Its large cup-shaped flowers display a beautiful candy pink colour, slightly shaded with white at the base. It starts flowering in March, marking the beginning of spring.

10 Tulipa Darwin 'Ollioules': A mid-season tulip, measuring approximately 50 cm in height. Its majestic, classic cup-shaped flowers feature a cherry pink colour bordered with white. They bloom in April, providing a perfect transition between early and late flowering varieties.

10 Late Single Tulips 'Jumbo Beauty': Reaching a height of 50-60 cm, this late variety stands out with its large flowers with intense pink petals and an almost white margin. Its flowering season extends until the end of May, beautifully concluding the tulip season.

Bulbs packed and labelled separately.

These tulip bulbs should be planted in autumn, between September and November, for optimal flowering the following spring. Plant them in borders, edges, or pots to enjoy their beauty at different heights. In a border, place the 'Jumbo Beauty' tulips at the back to create depth, the 'Ollioules' in the middle, and the 'Albert Heijn' in the foreground. For a mass effect, plant approximately 35 bulbs per square metre, with a spacing of 10-15 cm between each bulb. In pots, combine them with other spring bulbs, such as grape hyacinths or hyacinths.

Pair these pink tulips with 'Delft Blue' hyacinths, their porcelain blue spikes will complement the delicate pink of the 'Albert Heijn' tulips in the foreground of your border. The 'Mount Hood' narcissus, with its creamy white flowers, will blend in with the 'Ollioules' tulips to soften their vibrant colour while brightening up the scene. To add volume to the ensemble, place 'Duchesse de Nemours' lactiflora peonies in the background, behind the tall 'Jumbo Beauty' tulips. Their large, fragrant white flowers will take over from the tulips in late spring. Plan for approximately 10 hyacinths, 10 narcissus, and 3 peonies per square metre.
