Kaufmanniana Tulip Early Harvest
T1091
Description
Kaufmanniana Tulip ‘Early Harvest’ produces warm red flowers delicately edged with soft golden tones, bringing vibrant early colour to the spring garden. The cheerful blooms of tulip ‘Early Harvest’ open wide in sunshine on compact stems, making this reliable variety ideal for borders, containers, rockeries, and front-of-border planting schemes.
Flowering early in the season, it adds warmth and brightness to spring displays while pairing beautifully with muscari, dwarf narcissi, and other early bulbs.
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.
