Description

Soft and feathery, the blooms of tulip ’Green Wave’ exude elegance and grace flowering in the late spring garden. 

In a refreshing palette of blush and lavender pink, spring green and ivory shades, the delicate ruffled flowers have the versatility to mingle with other spring blooms in garden borders and containers without being overly imposing and look exquisite when mass planted in swathes and blocks.

With a vase life of at least two weeks, tulip ‘Green Wave’ is an exceptional cut flower, adding feathered texture and a luxurious edge to floral designs.

Care Guide

November is the optimum month 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 10-20cm deep, spaced 10-20cm 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.
