Double Tulips Mix XL Pack - Bulb

As soon as possible after receiving the Double Early Tulip bulbs plant them in the garden, or in pots for the patio or on the decking. If not they must be kept in a frost-free area. Bulbs planted in a flower pot are not usually frost resistant. Plant the bulbs in a planting hole that is three times as deep as the height of the bulbs. A bulb of 5 cm should be planted in a 15 cm deep hole. The planting distance is about 10 cm apart. Loosen the soil well and plant the bulbs with the point facing upwards. Refill the planting hole with soil. The more flower bulbs planted, the greater effect the flowers will give. Plant the tulips in groups of at least 6 bulbs, or divide about 25 to 50 flower bulbs evenly over the garden border or flower bed.

The flowers of the Double Early tulips are at their best in the first year. That’s why we recommend each year adding new and extra bulbs to make your borders and pots even more colourful. These tulips grow best in loose, well-drained soil in a spot in full sun. To protect the bulbs grown in a pot against frost, place the pot in a frost-free area or cover it with bubble wrap. Water during dry periods.

The Double Early tulip flowers start to bloom from the beginning of April. Our mix consists of white, yellow, red and pink coloured tulips. Each stem produces a flower with a wealth of colourful petals. A green vein can be seen on the outside of the petals. These tulips grow to a height of about 30 cm. Double Early tulips continue to flower even longer than the single flowering tulips.
