Like a stick of striped seaside rock, the Species tulip ‘Clusiana Peppermintstick’ brings a sense of childlike, nostalgic delight. Eye-catching petals unfurl with an inner layer of cool white, enveloped by a band of cerise pink. Opening to a broad star on a sunny day, this animated botanical tulip bobs above fine, grass-like foliage.

These bicolour blooms enliven container displays, borders, and lawns, where the bulbs will naturalise readily. This vigorous variety has earnt itself the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit for its impressive, consistently reliable performance. Appearing mid-April, ‘Peppermintstick’ offers a sweet treat early in the season.
