Mid Season Tulip Abu Hassan
T1361
Description
Mid-Season Tulip ‘Abu Hassan’ produces richly coloured mahogany-red blooms highlighted with fine chrysanthemum-like stripes and a narrow buttercup-yellow edge. The dramatic colouring of tulip ‘Abu Hassan’ creates a warm, glowing effect in spring borders and containers, bringing depth and intensity to seasonal planting schemes.
Held on sturdy stems, this striking variety performs reliably through mid-spring and pairs beautifully with deep purples, golds, and softer apricot tones for bold and sophisticated garden combinations.
Care Guide
October to November are the optimum months for planting Tulip bulbs. The cooler late-autumn temperatures help to keep disease at bay, whilst still allowing time for your bulbs to put roots down before spring.
Any well-drained, fertile soil is perfect for Tulips, ideally in full sun or part shade. Plant the bulbs 10-20 cm deep, spaced 10-20 cm apart. A piece of chicken wire or mesh can be placed on top of the soil or pots after planting if squirrels or rodents are a problem in your area.
After flowering in March to May, remove withered stems, foliage and any fallen petals to promote good plant health and apply a top dressing of high-potash fertiliser in late winter.
