Monet Tulips La Romaine

Silken cerise pink floral goblets on tall stems. They are perfect for adding some romance to the spring garden.

These huge, goblet shaped blooms are head and shoulders above the rest! We love the array of bold, bright colour that these hardy bulbs provide.

We recommend Monet Tulips for their vigour, especially in warmer climates. Of course they also grow really well in cooler climes.

A simple way to remember when to plant your tulips is to do so around Mother`s Day! This timing is ideal because by this time of year the soil has cooled sufficiently for planting.

All our bulbs are ready to grow; they do not need to be chilled, which is one less thing to do.

It is a good idea to prepare the soil for their arrival by adding some delicious organic matter. 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 your tulips 10-15cm apart, planting closer for a more spectacular show.

In most areas it is recommended you lift and store your Tulip bulbs once their foliage has browned. You don’t need to do this if you live in an area with frost, the soil is shaded or mulched through summer and the ground does not become soggy during their dormant period. In every other case it is recommended.
