Ballerina
T1744
You may well catch the scent of Lily Flowering Tulip ‘Ballerina’ way before you see her dancing in the garden, as she emits a beautiful, spicy-citrus perfume on warm spring days. This stunningly elegant tulip blooms in a graceful lily-flowered shape. Long, slender petals curve up and point outwards in zesty, marmalade-orange tones.
A super long-lasting cut flower which adds a stylish look to spring arrangements and bouquets. Tulip ‘Ballerina’ has been granted a prestigious Award of Garden Merit from the RHS for its all-round excellent performance.
Combine with pastel Aquilegias, Jonquilla ‘Cosmopolitan’ and tulip ‘Black Parrot’ for a tasteful, architectural late spring show. Plant the bulbs densely for an eye-catching effect.

Artist
T1499
Blooming in shades of salmon and rose, flushed with dark green and muted purple, the pointed petals of Viridiflora Tulip ‘Artist’ look as though they have been painted with the sweeping strokes of an artist’s brush.
These unique Heirloom tulips are long-lasting and return every spring for years to come, unlike many modern tulip varieties. The stems are not especially long, so plant near the front of the border and fill your pots to ensure tulip Artist’s exceptional beauty is not overshadowed by taller plants.

Belicia
T1922
Early Double Tulip ‘Belicia’ produces stems of multiple fancy blooms which will billow in the spring breeze like the plumes of a cavalier hat. The stunning feather-like petals of tulip 'Belicia' emerge in a soft shade of primrose yellow, edged in carmine, and fade to raspberry-rippled ivory.
The show-stopping bouquet-flowering Tulips are an arresting sight when planted to bloom in wide swathes in the border. Plant taller tulips such as the rich and plummy ‘Black Hero’ and elegant ‘Queen of Night’ behind for complimentary colour and texture.
