Paeony Flowering Tulip Wirosa
T1845
Description
Tulip ‘Wirosa’ combines two colours in perfect harmony, with rich red-pink petals elegantly edged in creamy white. Each bloom of paeony-flowering tulip ‘Wirosa’ appears like a carefully crafted jewel, bringing luxurious texture and refined contrast to late spring borders and containers.
Held proudly on strong stems, the full peony-like flowers add both structure and softness to seasonal planting schemes. For gardeners seeking a tulip with equal measures of power and poise, this striking variety offers the very best of both.
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.
