Crown Tulip Crown of Negrita
T3004
Description
Crown Tulip ‘Negita’ produces deep plum-purple blooms with a rich velvety finish, creating a dramatic and luxurious spring display. The intense colouring of tulip ‘Negita’ brings depth, contrast, and a sense of mystery to borders, containers, and feature planting schemes, where its elegant upright form stands out beautifully among lighter companion flowers.
Bold yet refined, this striking variety flowers on strong stems through spring and adds a sophisticated touch to both contemporary and classic garden designs.
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.
