18x Tulips Tulipa ‘The First’ red

This intensely coloured pygmy tulip ‘The First’ (Tulipa kaufmanniana) will be a great success in your spring garden! The flowers are beautifully red-and-white with a yellow centre. As the name says ‘The First’ is the first of its kind to bloom in early spring. After flowering, their attractive seed capsules remain. Plant the bulbs in the autumn. In well-drained soil. The flowers bloom in the spring.
The bulbs can be planted in open ground or in a pot. Potted bulbs aren’t frost hardy, so bring the pot indoors or protect the plant with bubble wrap. Space the bulbs out when planting in open ground. The distance between plants is three times the width of the bulb. Plant the bulb the depth of three times the bulb’s height. Plant the bulbs in full sun or partial shade. Water the bulb immediately after planting. Don’t water it until the soil feels dry to the touch. The bulbs come in organic packaging. Made of 100% natural materials and 100% recyclable!
All of our flower bulbs have the Holland Selection A quality mark, and come with a 100% guarantee that they will grow and bloom. You can be certain that the flower bulbs will grow.
