Merlot
T1776
A rich, deep-plum tulip, perfect for the jewel garden. Lily Flowering Tulip ‘Merlot’ blooms wide open in full sun, unfolding up its star-shaped, luxurious violet flowers to expose powdery anthers and a pale-lemon pistil to passing bees and pollinators.
This lavish, lily-flowered tulip 'Merlot' blooms on tall stems, adding grace and structure to borders and pots during May. Combine with vivid tulips of differing shapes both in the garden and in the vase for a colourful, textural spring blend.

Angelique
T1812
Often mistaken for a fragrant, ruffled paeony rather than a tulip, ‘Angelique’ is a romantic-looking, soft-pink paeony-tulip.
The apple-blossom pink blooms open fully during April and May and make stunning cut flowers for pretty spring arrangements. Cut or pull the stems before buds fully open for a long vase-life.
Awarded the prestigious Award of Garden Merit by the RHS, tulip ‘Angelique’ is a remarkable tulip which looks particularly effective when the bulbs are nestled closely together in pots and planted as a drift in the border.
Combine with fellow ice-cream shades for an angelic display, or with dark purple hues for delectable contrast.
