Golden Lady Tulips are rarely offered and highly prized. It holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit so you know it has been put through its paces and is garden ready.
The grey green leaves have a wavy edge and grow 10-15cm long.
Species Tulips have a more relaxed or whimsical feel than the common hybridized varieties. If planted in a well drained soil in a spot that does not get too hot over summer then the bulbs can be left in the ground for many years.
Species Tulips are ideal for rock gardens, lawn plantings, pots or towards the front of a border.
Tulips need good drainage and at least six hours sun a day to flower at their best. Plant the bulbs 15-20cm deep with the pointed end up. Space 10-20cm apart.
Tulipa clusiana is commonly known as The Lady Tulip.
