Tulips - Single Late
Tulipa 'Cafe Noir' in one of our display beds
Tulipa 'Avignon'
Richly coloured flowers of flame-orange with a hint of deep rose. One of the 'French' tulips, which are tall, beautifully coloured and harmonise well with each other. We grow 'Avignon' with 'Menton' to great effect, especially when combined with 'Fire King' wallflowers.
Flowering in late April - May at 24" (60cm)
Bulb size 12+ cm
Pack of 10 bulbs for £7.00
Pack of 50 bulbs for £31.50
Tulipa 'Bleu Aimable'
Sought-after old variety (dating from 1916) with neat flowers of cool, lavender-blue. It gave rise to the sport 'Blue Parrot' but is itself hard to come by now. We love to grow it with the dark 'Paul Scherer'.
'Bleu Aimable' has often been justly claimed to be the 'bluest' of the so-called 'blue' tulips, along with its sport 'Blue Parrot'. We find it to be reliably perennial, as might be expected...
Tulipa 'Caravelle'
Lovely deep claret blooms, which are a wonderful foil for brighter colours.
Flowering in April - May at 18" (45cm)
Bulb size 12/14 cm
Pack of 10 bulbs for £8.50
Pack of 50 bulbs for £39.00
Tulipa 'Dordogne'
Salmon pink flowers, suffusing out to gold at the petal edges. Blends beautifully with other 'French' tulips, such as 'Menton' & 'Avignon', which also have the same flowering time & height (late April/May, 24" (60cm).
