Making its dramatic appearance in mid-spring, ‘Gavota’ is a splendid Triumph tulip with striking colouration and sophisticated form. Emblazoned with a broad belt of maroon-purple, each bloom is framed by a contrasting border of sulphur yellow. The elongated flowers culminate in tapered petals which point outwards, welcoming the spring sunshine with open arms.

This distinctive variety is especially effective when planted against a brick wall and in terracotta pots to emphasize the warm, conker-coloured tones. Prized for its weather-resistance, reliability, and long-lasting blooms, ‘Gavota’ has deservedly been granted an RHS Award of Garden Merit.
