Lily Flowering Tulip La Perla
T1780
Description
Bright and cheerful, Lily-flowering Tulips 'La Perla' boast graceful yellow flowers on strong, resilient stems. These tulips exude a sense of vigour and joy, sunny petals bringing warmth and positivity to the garden.
Elegant, lily-like form adds a touch of sophistication, whilst robust stems ensure they stand tall and proud. 'La Perla' tulips are perfect for creating vibrant, uplifting garden displays which celebrate the exuberance of spring.
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.

Collection 3
T2003
Feathered edges and bicolour flames—Fringed Tulip Honeymoon’s pure white fringing complements Rembrant Tulip Grand Perfection’s dramatic red-on-cream petals. A pairing of elegance and spectacle.
Flowering together in April-May, this collection adds sophistication to formal borders or cut flower arrangements. Thrives in full sun.

Collection 4
T2004
Velvety, almost-black mid season tulip ‘Paul Scherer’ is set off beautifully by his pretty fringed companion fringed tulip ‘Huis Ten Bosch’ in this artful collection. In fact, you could say this pair are a match made in heaven.
The soft pink and ivory colouring and feathered texture of tulip ‘Huis Ten Bosch’ is amplified by RHS award-winning ‘Paul Scherer’s’ dark and moody looks, and simplified, classic tulip shape.
Both bloom in April to May and are excellent flowers for cutting and adding dynamic colour and interesting shape to late spring bouquets and arrangements.
Each collection contains 10 of each variety, each individually bagged and labelled. -
Ronaldo
T1735
A luxurious may-flowering tulip, ‘Ronaldo’ brings an air of mystical glamour to garden beds and containers when it blooms in May. The deep maroon flowers have a silken sheen to their surfaces and the pointed, slightly ribbed petals form almost-double heads.
Strong stems and long-lasting blooms mean tulip ‘Ronaldo’ is a reliable, yet exquisite addition to the garden, and is magnificent as a cut flower.
Mixes well with all colour shades, from soft blushing apricot to rich reds and bright pinks.
